docs/TestingGuide: Rip out description of old nightly tester infrastr…
…ucture. The official recommendation is to use LNT instead. I will write docs on setting up an LNT installation for submission to llvm.org, one day. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@110004 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

<p> | ||
The <a href="http://llvm.org/nightlytest/">LLVM Nightly Testers</a> | ||
automatically check out an LLVM tree, build it, run the "nightly" | ||
program test (described above), run all of the DejaGNU tests, | ||
delete the checked out tree, and then submit the results to | ||
<a href="http://llvm.org/nightlytest/">http://llvm.org/nightlytest/</a>. | ||
After test results are submitted to | ||
<a href="http://llvm.org/nightlytest/">http://llvm.org/nightlytest/</a>, | ||
they are processed and displayed on the tests page. An email to | ||
<a href="http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/llvm-testresults/"> | ||
[email protected]</a> summarizing the results is also generated. | ||
This testing scheme is designed to ensure that programs don't break as well | ||
as keep track of LLVM's progress over time.</p> | ||
|
||
<p>If you'd like to set up an instance of the nightly tester to run on your | ||
machine, take a look at the comments at the top of the | ||
<tt>utils/NewNightlyTest.pl</tt> file. If you decide to set up a nightly tester | ||
please choose a unique nickname and invoke <tt>utils/NewNightlyTest.pl</tt> | ||
with the "-nickname [yournickname]" command line option. | ||
|
||
<p>You can create a shell script to encapsulate the running of the script. | ||
The optimized x86 Linux nightly test is run from just such a script:</p> | ||
|
||
<div class="doc_code"> | ||
<pre> | ||
#!/bin/bash | ||
BASE=/proj/work/llvm/nightlytest | ||
export BUILDDIR=$BASE/build | ||
export WEBDIR=$BASE/testresults | ||
export LLVMGCCDIR=/proj/work/llvm/cfrontend/install | ||
export PATH=/proj/install/bin:$LLVMGCCDIR/bin:$PATH | ||
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/proj/install/lib | ||
cd $BASE | ||
cp /proj/work/llvm/llvm/utils/NewNightlyTest.pl . | ||
nice ./NewNightlyTest.pl -nice -release -verbose -parallel -enable-linscan \ | ||
-nickname NightlyTester -noexternals > output.log 2>&1 | ||
</pre> | ||
</div> | ||
|
||
<p>It is also possible to specify the the location your nightly test results | ||
are submitted. You can do this by passing the command line option | ||
"-submit-server [server_address]" and "-submit-script [script_on_server]" to | ||
<tt>utils/NewNightlyTest.pl</tt>. For example, to submit to the llvm.org | ||
nightly test results page, you would invoke the nightly test script with | ||
"-submit-server llvm.org -submit-script /nightlytest/NightlyTestAccept.cgi". | ||
If these options are not specified, the nightly test script sends the results | ||
to the llvm.org nightly test results page.</p> | ||
|
||
<p>Take a look at the <tt>NewNightlyTest.pl</tt> file to see what all of the | ||
flags and strings do. If you start running the nightly tests, please let us | ||
know. Thanks!</p> | ||
