[PATCH v3 4/8] test-lib: self-test that --verbose works

From
Thomas Rast <trast@inf.ethz.ch>
Date
Jun 18, 2013, 12:26 UTC
Message-ID
<81378a78ec46f876a2b426be99cbb6c3f85498f9.1371557431.git.trast@inf.ethz.ch>
In-Reply-To
<cover.1371557431.git.trast@inf.ethz.ch>

t0000 contains some light self-tests of test-lib.sh, but --verbose was not covered. Add a test.

The only catch is that the presence of a test harness influences the output (specifically, the presence of some empty lines). The easiest fix is to unset TEST_HARNESS for the sub-test scripts. This means that we no longer check whether test-lib.sh works under the harness; however, since running everything under 'prove' seems far more common than the esoteric --verbose-only feature introduced in the next commit, this seems the smaller risk.
