 This directory contains test scripts that are useful for running a

+provided. Use the included "plantest" function to generate the required output.
+
+Testsuite behaviour
+================================
+
+Exit code
+------------
+The testsuites should exit with a non-zero exit code if at least one 
+test failed. Skipped tests should not influence the exit code.
+
+Output format
+-------------
+Testsuites can simply use the exit code to indicate whether all of their 
+tests have succeeded or one or more have failed. It is also possible to 
+provide more granular information using the Subunit protocol. 
+
+This protocol works by writing simple messages to standard output. Any 
+messages that can not be interpreted by this protocol are considered comments 
+for the last announced test.
+
+Accepted commands are:
+
+test
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+test: <NAME>
+
+Announce that a new test with the specified name is starting
+
+success
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+success: <NAME> 
+
+Announce that the test with the specified name is done and ran successfully.
+
+failure
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+failure: <NAME> 
+failure: <NAME> [ REASON ]
+
+Announce that the test with the specified name failed. Optionally, it is 
+possible to specify a reason it failed.
+
+skip
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+skip: <NAME>
+skip: <NAME> [ REASON ]
+
+Announce that the test with the specified name was skipped. Optionally a 
+reason can be specified.
+
+knownfail
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+knownfail: <NAME>
+knownfail: <NAME> [ REASON ]
+
+Announce that the test with the specified name was run and failed as expected.
+Alternatively it is also possible to simply return "failure:" here but 
+specify in the samba4-knownfailures file that it is failing.
