How about creating a dedicated directory for the created files, to maintain
that? My goal of being able to redirect the test output elsewhere can be
achieved with just a hunk like this:
@@ -70,11 +70,13 @@ delete $ENV{LS_COLORS};
# to run in the build directory so that we can use relative paths to
# access the tmp_check subdirectory; otherwise the output from filename
# completion tests is too variable.
-if ($ENV{TESTDIR})
+if ($ENV{TESTOUTDIR})
{
- chdir $ENV{TESTDIR} or die "could not chdir to \"$ENV{TESTDIR}\": $!";
+ chdir "$ENV{TESTOUTDIR}" or die "could not chdir to \"$ENV{TESTOUTDIR}\":
$!";
}
+mkdir "tmp_check" unless -d "tmp_check";
+
# Create some junk files for filename completion testing.
my $FH;
open $FH, ">", "tmp_check/somefile"
Of course it'd need a comment adjustment etc. It's a bit ugly to use a
otherwise empty tmp_check/ directory just to reduce the diff size, but it's
also not too bad.
