NAME

       autodep8 - DEP-8 test control file generator

DESCRIPTION

       autodep8 will detect well-known types of packages and generate DEP-8-compliant test
       control files for them. It can be used by DEP-8 implementations to support implicit test
       control files.

USAGE

           $ autodep8                 # assumes source package in current dir
           $ autodep8 /path/to/srcpkg # path to source package

       If a known package type is detected, autodep8 exits with 0 and prints the suggested
       contents of debian/tests/control to the standard output.

       If a known package type is NOT detected, autodep8 exits with 1 and produces not output.

COMBINING AUTO-GENERATED TESTS WITH MANUALLY SPECIFIED ONES

       If `debian/tests/control.autodep8` exists, autodep8 will prepend the contents of that file
       to its own output. In that case, autodep8 will exit with a status of 0 even if no known
       package type is detected.
