<p>The LLVM test suite is partially driven by DejaGNU and partially
driven by GNU Make. Specifically, the Features and Regression tests
-are all driven by DejaGNU (and optionally QMTest). The llvm-test

module is currently driven by a set of Makefiles.</p>
<p>The DejaGNU structure is very simple, but does require some
-information to be set. This information is gathered via configure and

-<p>The Feature and Regression tests can also be run using QMTest.</p>
-
-<p>The QMTest system needs to have several pieces of information available;
-these pieces of configuration information are known collectively as the
-"context" in QMTest parlance. Since the context for LLVM is relatively large,
-the master Makefile in llvm/test sets it for you.</p>
-
-<p>The LLVM database class makes the subdirectories of llvm/test a QMTest test
-database. For each directory that contains tests driven by QMTest, it knows
-what type of test the source file is and how to run it.</p>
-
-<p>Hence, the QMTest namespace is essentially what you see in the Feature and
-Regression directories, but there is some magic that the database class performs
-(as described below).</p>
-
-<p>The QMTest namespace is currently composed of the following tests and test
-suites:</p>
-
-<ul>
-<li>Feature
-
-<p>These are the feature tests found in the Feature directory.
-They are broken up into the following categories:</p>
-
-<ul>
- <li>ad
- <p>Assembler/Disassembler tests. These tests verify that a piece of LLVM
- assembly language can be assembled into bytecode and then disassembled
- into the original assembly language code. It does this several times to
- ensure that assembled output can be disassembled and disassembler output
- can be assembled. It also verifies that the give assembly language file
- can be assembled correctly.</p></li>
-
- <li>opt
- <p>Optimizer tests. These tests verify that two of the optimizer passes
- completely optimize a program (i.e. after a single pass, they cannot
- optimize a program any further).</p></li>
-
- <li>mc
- <p> Machine code tests. These tests verify that the LLVM assembly
- language file can be translated into native assembly code.</p></li>
-
- <li>cc
- <p>C code tests. These tests verify that the specified LLVM assembly
- code can be converted into C source code using the C backend.</p></li>
-</ul>
-
-<p>The LLVM database class looks at every file in the Feature directory and
-creates a fake test hierarchy containing
-<tt>Feature.<testtype>.<testname></tt>. So, if you add an LLVM
-assembly language file to the Feature directory, it actually creates 5 new
-tests: assembler/disassembler, assembler, optimizer, machine code, and C code.
-</p></li>
-
-<li>Regression
- <p>These are the regression tests. There is one suite for each
- subdirectory of the Regression directory. If you add a new subdirectory
- there, you will need to modify, at least, the <tt>RegressionMap</tt>
- variable in <tt>QMTest/llvmdb.py</tt> so that QMTest knows how to run the
- tests in the new subdirectory.</p>

own TEST Makefile for any optimization or analysis passes that you develop with
LLVM.</p>
-
+
+<p>Note, when configuring the <tt>llvm-test</tt> module, you might want to
+specify the following configuration options:</p>
+<dl>
+ <dt><i>--enable-spec2000</i>
+ <dt><i>--enable-spec2000=<<tt>directory</tt>></i>
+ <dd>
+ Enable the use of SPEC2000 when testing LLVM. This is disabled by default
+ (unless <tt>configure</tt> finds SPEC2000 installed). By specifying
+ <tt>directory</tt>, you can tell configure where to find the SPEC2000
+ benchmarks. If <tt>directory</tt> is left unspecified, <tt>configure</tt>
+ uses the default value
+ <tt>/home/vadve/shared/benchmarks/speccpu2000/benchspec</tt>.
+ <p>
+ <dt><i>--enable-spec95</i>
+ <dt><i>--enable-spec95=<<tt>directory</tt>></i>
+ <dd>
+ Enable the use of SPEC95 when testing LLVM. It is similar to the
+ <i>--enable-spec2000</i> option.
+ <p>
+ <dt><i>--enable-povray</i>
+ <dt><i>--enable-povray=<<tt>directory</tt>></i>
+ <dd>
+ Enable the use of Povray as an external test. Versions of Povray written
+ in C should work. This option is similar to the <i>--enable-spec2000</i>
+ option.
