Nice, but I'm a little bit Warnocked. 1) I did post a script (testnative), which runs _all_ tests as executables, _all_ not one, and --shared too. 2) Im my tree (~20 lines diff to CVS) $ perl6 --test-parrot ../../t/*/*.t .... Failed Test Status Wstat Total Fail Failed List of failed ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- .../../t/src/bas 2 2 100,00% 1-2 5 subtests skipped. Failed 1/26 test scripts, 96.15% okay. 2/433 subtests failed, 99.54% okay. e.g. $ perl6 --parrot-test ../../t/pmc/p*.t Test details: .../../t/pmc/perlarray.t......15/15 .../../t/pmc/perlhash.t.......15/15 .... $ perl6 --parrot-test ../../t/pmc/p*.t -C ## as C executable Test details: .../../t/pmc/perlarray.t......15/15 $ perl6 --parrot-test ../../t/pmc/p*.t -C --shared ## shared exe Test details: .../../t/pmc/perlarray.t.......7/15 ^C Rational: This saves the rather longish startup times for loading the perl6 parser. Testing parrot (or imc is a side effect). Perl6 test times are cut to 40%. BTW, perl6 deletes the 2MB exe after test (433 * 2 MB = boom ;-) leo
