Phoronix: Khronos Open-Sources OpenGL / OpenGL ES Conformance Tests

The OpenGL and OpenGL ES Conformance Test Suites (GL CTS) from The Khronos Group have finally went the way of their Vulkan CTS... open-source!..

Finally, it should have been that way since the beginning.

Woooooow awesome news (y)

Very nice. (Y)

Very good news. I hope that will help the free driver stack to grow and mature further. Though being test-compliant and passing it doesn not automatically mean all applications and games will run flawless. We need to keep that in mind.

Let's see what the community can contribute to the CTS.

Bad question. Lets see if Khronos accept code and testcases from the community. Hardware Vendors don't want a strict testsuite. That makes the development only expensive.

I'm just hoping that they open up the OpenCL CTS as well. The biggest thing slowing down any of my contributions to libclc/clover for radeonsi/r600g CL support is lack of easily accessible ready-made (and decent quality) tests.

Piglit has CL tests, and generators for tests, but what it doesn't give you is well-chosen test input values for all of the builtin functions.

Very good news! I hope this will help the Nouveau team, too.

Awesome!
