Running the Full Test Suite
---------------------------
-**Windows Note**: In the examples that follow, any invocations of python should
-be replaced with python_d, the debug interpreter, when running the test suite
-against a debug version of LLDB.
-
The easiest way to run the LLDB test suite is to use the ``check-lldb`` build
-target. By default, the ``check-lldb`` target builds the test programs with the
-same compiler that was used to build LLDB. To build the tests with a different
+target.
+
+By default, the ``check-lldb`` target builds the test programs with the same
+compiler that was used to build LLDB. To build the tests with a different
compiler, you can set the ``LLDB_TEST_C_COMPILER`` or the
``LLDB_TEST_CXX_COMPILER`` CMake variables. These variables are ignored unless
the respective ``LLDB_TEST_USE_CUSTOM_C_COMPILER`` and
Note that multiple ``-A`` and ``-C`` flags can be specified to
``LLDB_TEST_USER_ARGS``.
-Note that on NetBSD you must export ``LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$PWD/lib`` in your
-environment. This is due to lack of the ``$ORIGIN`` linker feature.
Running a Specific Test or Set of Tests
---------------------------------------
-In addition to running all the LLDB test suites with the "check-lldb" CMake
-target above, it is possible to run individual LLDB tests. For example, to run
-the test cases defined in TestInferiorCrashing.py, run:
+In addition to running all the LLDB test suites with the ``check-lldb`` CMake
+target above, it is possible to run individual LLDB tests. If you have a CMake
+build you can use the ``lldb-dotest`` binary, which is a wrapper around
+``dotest.py`` that passes all the arguments configured by CMake. Alternatively,
+you can use ``dotest.py`` directly, if you want to run a test one-off with a
+different configuration.
+
+
+For example, to run the test cases defined in TestInferiorCrashing.py, run:
+
+::
+
+ > lldb-dotest -p TestInferiorCrashing.py
::
> cd $lldb/test
> python dotest.py --executable <path-to-lldb> -p TestInferiorCrashing.py ../packages/Python/lldbsuite/test
-If the test is not specified by name (e.g. if you leave the -p argument off),
-LLDB will run all tests in that directory:
