Currently it appears almost like the scripts are basically unordered, and the digit you increment is chosen mostly randomly. Also, the "freeform" field after the test number is not as informative as it could be. What are the rules you use for naming the testcases? Could you please document it in the README? I'd propose: First digit: "family", e.g. the absolute basics and global stuff (0), the basic db-side commands (read-tree, write-tree, commit-tree), the basic working-tree-side commands (checkout-cache, update-cache), the other basic commands (ls-files), the diff commands, the pull commands, exporting commands, revision tree commands... Second digit: the particular command we are testing Third digit: (optionally) the particular switch or group of switches we are testing Freeform part: commandname-details How would I rename the current scripts? t1000-checkout-cache.sh -> t2000-checkout-cache-clash.sh t1001-checkout-cache.sh -> t2001-checkout-cache-clash.sh t0200-update-cache.sh -> t2010-update-cache-badpath.sh t0400-ls-files.sh -> t3000-ls-files-others.sh t0500-ls-files.sh -> t3010-ls-files-killed.sh -- Petr "Pasky" Baudis Stuff: http://pasky.or.cz/ C++: an octopus made by nailing extra legs onto a dog. -- Steve Taylor ``` ## Junio C Hamano, 2005-05-14 17:18 Subject: Re: Test scripts naming Message-ID: <7v3bspzpyt.fsf@assigned-by-dhcp.cox.net> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/7v3bspzpyt.fsf%40assigned-by-dhcp.cox.net In-Reply-To: <20050514165321.GX3905@pasky.ji.cz> ``` >>>>> "PB" == Petr Baudis writes: PB> I'd propose: PB> ...

I will not be online most of today so if you feel like it, I'd really appreciate it if you do the renames and documentation yourself without waiting for me. ```
