For the full testsuite documentation, please see here.
Commands to run testsuite:
- Full testsuite:
make
- Using more threads:
make THREADS=12
- Reduced (fast) testsuite:
make fast
- Run a specific test:
make TEST=tc054
- Test a specific 'way':
make WAY=optllvm
- Test a specifc stage of GHC:
make stage=1
- Skip performance tests:
make SKIP_PERF_TESTS=YES
- Set verbosity:
make VERBOSE=n
where n=0: No per-test ouput, n=1: Only failures, n=2: Progress output, n=3: Include commands called (default) - Pass in extra GHC options:
make EXTRA_HC_OPTS=-fvectorize
You can also change directory to a specific test folder to run that individual test or group of tests. For example:
$ cd tests/array
$ make
The testsuite can be run in a variety of 'ways'. This concept refers
to different ways that GHC can compile the code. For example, using
the native code generator (-fasm
) is one way, while using the LLVM
code generator (-fllvm
) is another way.
The various ways that GHC supports are defined in config/ghc
