This directory is used for files used to test chap, including scripts, some sample input files (cores and such) and expected outputs, as well as source for some generator programs that can be used to create new cores. The most important testing done here is running commands from chap against existing cores to verify that the output is as expected, by verifying against previous runs. If the output does not match, one must check why. If the old output was simply less correct it can be replaced. If the new output is wrong that indicates a regression that should be fixed. Those tests can be found under expectedOutputTests. For generating cores to use as input, generally not needed unless one supports a new combination of file format, memory allocator and byte alignment, various source files are available under generators. It is is desirable to add new generators to extend the testing or add regression tests for recent bugs.
