From cbd71fad6d468018727ab04b2bb912989aec0785 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Simon Glass Date: Thu, 20 Oct 2022 18:22:50 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] test: Support tests which can only be run manually At present we normally write tests either in Python or in C. But most Python tests end up doing a lot of checks which would be better done in C. Checks done in C are orders of magnitude faster and it is possible to get full access to U-Boot's internal workings, rather than just relying on the command line. The model is to have a Python test set up some things and then use C code (in a unit test) to check that they were done correctly. But we don't want those checks to happen as part of normal test running, since each C unit tests is dependent on the associate Python tests, so cannot run without it. To acheive this, add a new UT_TESTF_MANUAL flag to use with the C 'check' tests, so that they can be skipped by default when the 'ut' command is used. Require that tests have a name ending with '_norun', so that pytest knows to skip them.
