For further information about +the C testsuite, see README.gcc. + +The driver that runs this testsuite is called DejaGnu and you will +need a current DejaGnu snapshot, which is available from +ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/infrastructure, for example. + +These tests are included "as is". If any of them fails, do not report +a bug. Bug reports for DejaGnu can go to bug-dejagnu@gnu.org. +Discussion and comments about this testsuite should be sent to +gcc@gcc.gnu.org; additions and changes to should go to sent to +gcc-patches@gcc.gnu.org. + +The entire testsuite is invoked by `make check` at the top level of +the GCC tree. `make check-g++` runs the C++ testsuite only. + +STRUCTURE OF THE G++ TESTSUITE + + g++.dg tests: + + All new tests should be placed in an appropriate subdirectory of g++.dg. + + g++.old-deja tests: + + g++.benjamin Tests by Benjamin Koz + g++.bob + g++.brendan Tests by Brendan Kehoe + g++.bugs + g++.eh Tests for exception handling + g++.ext Tests for g++ extensions + g++.gb Tests by Gerald Baumgartner + g++.jason Tests by Jason Merill + g++.jeff Tests by Jeffrey A Law + g++.martin Tests by Martin v.
