NAME

        aetest - aegis test results file format

DESCRIPTION

        The  default  configuration  of  the  test_command  and development_test_command commands of the project
        config file (see aepconf(5) for more information) is for the test commands to test a  single  test  file
        and a single architecture at a time.  On some systems, this is not efficient.

        When  configured  to  run multiple simultaneous tests, or multiple simultaneous architectures, a file of
        the format described here is used to communicate the test results back to Aegis.

CONTENTS

        Use a separate row for each unique filename and architecture combination.

        test_result = [ { ... } ];
                All the fields are mandatory.

                file_name = string;
                        This is the name of the file being tested.  Use the same filename as was  given  to  the
                        test command.

                exit_status = integer;
                        This is the exit status returned by the test.

                architecture = string;
                        This is the architecture which the test was run on.  Defaults to the architecture of the
                        current  system  if  not  set.   (Try to avoid setting this field unless you have a very
                        clever multi-architecture test system.)
