| NAME |
| ---- |
| perf-test - Runs sanity tests. |
| |
| SYNOPSIS |
| -------- |
| [verse] |
| 'perf test [<options>] [{list <test-name-fragment>|[<test-name-fragments>|<test-numbers>]}]' |
| |
| DESCRIPTION |
| ----------- |
| This command does assorted sanity tests, initially through linked routines but |
| also will look for a directory with more tests in the form of scripts. |
| |
| To get a list of available tests use 'perf test list', specifying a test name |
| fragment will show all tests that have it. |
| |
| To run just specific tests, inform test name fragments or the numbers obtained |
| from 'perf test list'. |
| |
| OPTIONS |
| ------- |
| -s:: |
| --skip:: |
| Tests to skip (comma separated numeric list). |
| |
| -v:: |
| --verbose:: |
| Be more verbose. |
| |
| -S:: |
| --sequential:: |
| Run tests one after the other, this is the default mode. |
| |
| -p:: |
| --parallel:: |
| Run tests in parallel, speeds up the whole process but is not safe with |
| the current infrastructure, where some tests that compete for some resources, |
| for instance, 'perf probe' tests that add/remove probes or clean all probes, etc. |
| |
| -F:: |
| --dont-fork:: |
| Do not fork child for each test, run all tests within single process, this |
| sets sequential mode. |
| |
