@ -41,14 +41,21 @@ There are some mechanisms to limit the tests run during "make test".
These come very handy when doing development, but should not be used
to circumvent the "pass" requirements listed below.
To limit the backends that the tests are run against, use the
TARGETS make variable, that can also be passed to make.
It should contain a (space-, comma-, etc-separated) list of backends to test.
To limit the tests run, use the CAIRO_TESTS environment variable, which
should be a space-separated list of tests to run. For example:
make's TARGETS environment variable can be used to limit the backends when
running the tests. It should contain a (space-, comma-separated) list of
backends. CAIRO_TESTS environment variable, which is a comma-, space-seperated
lists, can be used to limit the tests run.
For example:
CAIRO_TESTS="zero-alpha" make test TARGETS=image,ps
make's FORMAT variable can also be used to limit the content formats when
running the tests. It should contain a (space-, comma-separated) list of
content formats to test.
For example:
CAIRO_TESTS="zero-alpha" make test TARGETS=image,ps FORMAT="rgb,rgba"
Another very handy mechanism when trying to fix bugs is:
make retest
