-* All ctest script files in this folder have the following format :
- PROJECT-OS.ctest (e.g. crea-linux.ctest for crea project on linux platforms
- bbtk-osx.ctest for bbtk project on OsX platforms)
-
-* The default configuration is to build and run the tests in ${HOME}/dashboards,
-(to be created by user)
- This location is stored by ctest in the var CTEST_DASHBOARD_ROOT
-
-* You have to :
-
-1) Create a initial CMakeCache.txt corresponding to your machine config :
-
- a) CVS Checkout the project to test
- b) Configure the project manually with cmake (ccmake or CMakeSetup), setting
- your system/install specific options (libraries paths, options, build type, ...)
- c) Copy the file 'CMakeCache.txt' from the build tree to your testing directory
- (where you will run ctest, usually the same than CTEST_DASHBOARD_ROOT),
- giving it a meaningfull name
- (PROJECT-BUILDTYPE-CMakeCache.txt, e.g. crea-debug-CMakeCache.txt)
- d) Edit the copied file and comment out (type an initial #) all lines which
- make explicit reference to the build directory
- (the directory where you configured with cmake, use the 'find' tool of your
- editor). Typically for crea, you'll have to comment out the following lines :
- #//Value Computed by CMake
- #crea_BINARY_DIR:STATIC=/home/guigues/coding/Build/crea
- #//Value Computed by CMake
- #crea_SOURCE_DIR:STATIC=/home/guigues/coding/CreaTools/crea
- #//This is the directory where this CMakeCahe.txt was created
- #CMAKE_CACHEFILE_DIR:INTERNAL=/home/guigues/coding/Build/crea
- #//Start directory with the top level CMakeLists.txt file for this
- #// project
- #CMAKE_HOME_DIRECTORY:INTERNAL=/home/guigues/coding/CreaTools/crea
-
-
-2) Copy in CTEST_DASHBOARD_ROOT the right ctest file to another filename,
- e.g. copy crea-linux to crea-mymachine-debug.ctest
-
-
-3) Edit the new file and set :
- * The architecture description, typically os+compiler with versions
- e.g. fc9-gcc4.3.0, win32-vs8, etc.
- * The build type, e.g. debug, release...
- * The name of the CMakeCache.txt file to use as initial cache file (see 3)
- below)
- * You can also customize the CTEST_DASHBOARD_ROOT folder
-
-4) Run ctest with the script, typically :
-> ctest -S crea-linux-mymachine-debug.ctest -V
-The -V option sets ctest to verbose mode, use -VV if you want to see each
-command issued...
-
-
-* To schedule automatic build, see :
+1) Create a directory where you are going to run the tests.
+ The default directory is '${HOME}/dashboards'
+ If you change this location then you MUST change the line :
+ set(CTEST_DASHBOARD_ROOT "$ENV{HOME}/dashboards")
+ in your ctest file (see below)
+
+2) Copy the ctest file corresponding to your os in the test dir,
+ e.g. copy 'creatools-linux-osx.ctest' if you are on a linux
+ or on a mac osx platform.
+
+3) Edit the copied file and make the necessary changes inside
+ following the comments therein.
+ If you changed the default test dir, do not forget to change
+ the line set(CTEST_DASHBOARD_ROOT "$ENV{HOME}/dashboards").
+
+4) For each project you want to test:
+ 4.1) Perform an initial checkout of the project in test dir,
+ e.g. 'cvs co crea'
+ 4.2) Create a build dir with name PROJECTNAME-BUILDTYPE,
+ e.g. 'crea-release'
+ 4.3) Go to the build dir, configure the project with cmake
+ (run ccmake or CMakeSetup), setting your machine
+ specific options (libraries paths, options, build type, ...)
+ 4.4) Copy the 'CMakeCache.txt' file created by cmake in the test dir
+ renaming it 'PROJECTNAME-BUILDTYPE-CMakeCache.txt'
+
+5) To run a test, type in test dir:
+ 'ctest -S creatools-OS.ctest,PROJECTNAME' [-V|-VV]
+ Where : * 'creatools-OS.ctest' is the name of your customized ctest file,
+ (e.g. creatools-linux-osx.ctest)
+ * PROJECTNAME is the name of the project to build and test
+ (e.g. crea, bbtk, ...)
+ * add -V or -VV tu run in verbose or extra-verbose mode
+
+----------------
+If you want to build the whole suite, you have to follow the projects
+dependencies.
+When you configure manually a project with cmake,
+make sure that the path to the libraries of the suite
+are properly set to the build directories in the test dir.
+
+A consistent build order is:
+- crea
+- bbtk (depends on crea)
+- creaEnvironment (depends on crea)
+- creaImageIO (depends on crea, bbtk)
+- creaMaracasVisu (depends on crea, bbtk)
+- creaContours (depends on crea, bbtk, creaImageIO, creaEnvironment, creaMaracasVisu)
+
+On linux or osx, see the bash script ctest-all-creatools.sh
