This is a collection of tests for GCC. For further information about the C testsuite, see README.gcc. The driver that runs this testsuite is called DejaGnu and you will need a current DejaGnu snapshot, which is available from ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/infrastructure, for example. These tests are included "as is". If any of them fails, do not report a bug. Bug reports for DejaGnu can go to bug-dejagnu@prep.ai.mit.edu. Discussion and comments about this testsuite should be sent to gcc@gcc.gnu.org; additions and changes to should go to sent to gcc-patches@gcc.gnu.org. The entire testsuite is invoked by `make check` at the top level of the GCC tree. `make check-g++` runs the C++ testsuite only.

If DejaGnu is not install this will be the relative path name for runtest. --tool This tells DejaGnu which tool you are testing. It is mainly used to find the testsuite directories for a particular tool when several testsuites are in the same directory. (like the gcc and g++ testsuites) --srcdir This points to the top level of the directory containing the sources of the testsuite. This is ./testsuite if you are in the directory that has the testsuite directory.
