Tester for 42_cursus "philosopher" project

Usage

  • Clone this repository at the root of your philosopher's directory without changig its name
git clone https://github.com/lienardale/alientest_philosopher.git && cd alientest_philosopher
  • Run the script of your choosing (while remaining in the tester's dir)
bash all_test.sh

  • It doesn't matter if you did the bonus or not, it's supposed to work either way (if not, dm me on slack @alienard)

  • available tests

    • correction values (correction_test.sh)
    • leaks (leak_test.sh)
    • data-races (data_race_test.sh)
    • timestamp order (order.sh)
    • all of the above + norm (all_tests.sh)

  • How to read the output :

    green tick : test passed
    red cross : test failed

  • check the log files :

    • norm
    • output
    • leaks
    • data_races

Warnings

  • This tester is not enough to validate the project, remember to also test :
    • each program without a 5th argument
    • check the coherence of the output
    • ask for explanations on the choices that were made and the issues encountered
  • If you use this tester during this project
pgrep philo

will output the PID of every running philo process

pgrep philo | xargs kill

same but will also kill them
