This directory intends to host a comprehensive testsuite for Alire/ALR as a library/tool. The testsuite framework currently requires a Python 3 interpreter with the e3-testsuite package (from PyPI) installed.
You also must have GNAT and
GPRBuild in your PATH. You can install
these with, for example:
alr toolchain --install --install-dir=<dir> gnat_native=<version_x> gprbuild=<version_y>and add <dir>/gnat_native_<version_x>_(...)/bin and
<dir>/gprbuild_<version_y>_(...)/bin to your PATH.
Assuming your environment already has a Python 3 interpreter and has
virtualenv installed, here is a quick cookbook to run the testsuite:
# Create a virtualenv (prefix to install packages)
# The exact command varies from one Linux distribution to another:
# virtualenv, virtualenv3, virtualenv-3.10, ...
$ virtualenv my-virtual-env
# Update your environment to use it
$ source my-virtual-env/bin/activate
# Install e3-testsuite and all its dependencies
$ pip install e3-testsuite
# You should now be able to run the testsuite (make sure you built alr and
# made it available with your PATH):
$ ./run.py
