Hello automakers, I've noticed the following behavior from 'make recheck'.
If I run 'make check' and one test fails $ make check ... FAIL: foo.test I modify the test $ edit foo.c and rerun the test suite with $ make recheck -k foo.c:1: error: parse error before '}' token make[1]: *** [foo.o] Error 1 make[1]: Target `test-suite.log' not remade because of errors. make: *** [recheck] Error 2which is now interrupted as I introduced a compilation error. If I now try edit the test again and rerun test suite with
$ make recheck -k I get # TOTAL: 0 # PASS: 0 # SKIP: 0 # XFAIL: 0 # FAIL: 0 # XPASS: 0 # ERROR: 0that is, the failed test is not rerun. I suppose the reason is that it was never run last time and that there exist no trs file, but this is IMHO suboptimal and unexpected. I would expect that make recheck also includes tests that failed due to compilation problems or at least tests that failed last time they were run.
Please find a script attached illustrating the behavior. This is with automake 1.12. Cheers, Peter -- Peter Johansson
