how do i exclude a test in "suite-definition.xml"

Hi,

I have defined a test-suite "suite-definition.xml"

Code:

---

<Execute>
    <Test>pts/cpu</Test>
  </Execute>
  <Execute>
    <Test>pts/disk</Test>
  </Execute>
  <Execute>
    <Test>pts/memory</Test>
  </Execute>

---

one test is hanging and i have to kill the process or it just runs forever...
the test name is tscp-1.0.0
how do i exclude it in my "suite-definition.xml" file?

thank you.

The easiest way would be to just delete it from the XML file.

Hello Michael,

the problem is that "pts/tscp" is part of the "pts/cpu"

Code:

---

./phoronix-test-suite info pts/cpu

this feature is very good and saves time... just define

Code:

---

<Execute>
    <Test>pts/cpu</Test>
  </Execute>

---

and cpu tests are running...

because i have in my xml file "pts/cpu" i can not remove "pts/tscp"....

is there some workaround?

Thank You

You could set environment variable: SKIP_TESTS=tscp

It should work like that otherwise SKIP_TESTS=pts/tscp

tested both variables. and confirmed they are exported...
both result in the following PTS error. and the tests did not run at all.

Code:

---

[NOTICE] Undefined: run_object in pts_test_run_manager.php:1450
PHP Fatal error:  Call to a member function get_identifier_base_name() on a non-object in /root/phoronix-test-suite/pts-core/objects/client/pts_test_run_manager.php on line 1450

---

Solution
remove the pts/tscp definition from this file...

Code:

---

../test-suites/pts/cpu-1.2.0/suite-definition.xml

---

in this file are all pts/cpu tests defined.

Thanks for the report about the error, it's been fixed in Git.
