This is the Memory Management QA test harness. To use it you need
perl 5 (or higher). Go "perl qa help" for help, "perl qa options"
to see what version of the harness you have (or look at the
file "test/version").
Testing on Unix
---------------
From the test directory::
PLATFORM=lii6ll # substitute your platform
VARIETY=cool # or hot
CODE=../code # code directory of the branch you are testing
make -B -C $CODE -f $PLATFORM.gmk VARIETY=$VARIETY $PLATFORM/$VARIETY/mps.o
alias qa="perl test/qa -i $CODE -l $CODE/$PLATFORM/$VARIETY/mps.o"
qa clib
qa run function/5.c
qa runset testsets/passing
Each test case is compiled in its turn to the file
``test/obj/$(uname -s)_$(uname -r)_$(uname -p)__unix/tmp_test``
so you can debug it with::
lldb test/obj/$(uname -s)_$(uname -r)_$(uname -p)__unix/tmp_test
Or ``gdb`` instead of ``lldb``. MMQA sets its own assertion handler,
so you'll probably want to set a breakpoint on mmqa_assert_handler.
