Re: [asdf-devel] About regression tests and libraries

2009/8/5 Robert Goldman <rpgoldman@sift.info>:

Part of the problem with test-op is that the desired behavior has not been specified by the ASDF community.  Because of the nature of ASDF, it is impossible for

(asdf:test-system <system>)

to return a value indicating whether or not <system> has passed its tests.

I would propose that as a matter of good style implementations of TEST-OP should signal an error is tests do not pass. It is the simplest way to make sure the result is not misinterpreted... Cheers, -- Nikodemus
