Hi all, Starting with Meson 0.57, "meson test" has all features of QEMU's makefile-based harness and more. In particular, some features that were added to reach feature parity are:
* print reproducer command line for each failed test right below the test * keep the output of multiple (non-TAP) tests together in verbose mode, similar to "make --output-sync target" * report on TAP subtests as they are encountered It also includes nicer handling of test interruption, logging of the run in the meson-logs/ subdirectory, and a progress report/spinner. For these reasons it would be nice to adopt it and remove the Perl scripts that we have to present TAP output nicely. It is also possible to change qemu-iotests to TAP and describe it in tests/qemu-iotests/meson.build, but this is left for later. For people using "make check" there should be little or no change. Otherwise: * if you want to try "meson test", note that there could be timeouts on slower systems (and in particular OpenBSD is insanely slow on some tests). Also if you use "meson test", note that CTRL+C will only interrupt the longest running test. Pressing CTRL+C repeatedly three times (which you would likely do anyway, that's how humans work) interrupts the whole run. This behavior does not apply to "make check". * If you were using make check-report.tap and similar, they are replaced by targets like make check-report.junit.xml. This is because Gitlab is able to parse the resulting XML and include on the website a report of which tests failed. An example of non-verbose "make check" output is available at https://gitlab.com/bonzini/qemu/-/jobs/1680980620. A verbose run instead is like https://asciinema.org/a/e5irnEszSnAheOHM30exbo3F6 (does not include check-block).
