The Linux Test Project test suite <http://www.linuxtestproject.org> has been released. The latest version of the testsuite contains 2000+ tests for the Linux OS. Our web site also contains other information such as: test results, a Linux test tools matrix, an area for keeping up with fixes for known blocking problems in the 2.5/2.6 kernel releases, technical papers and HowTos on Linux testing, and a code coverage analysis tool.
Highlights:
* Updated the LTP test driver to handle all real-time signals.
* Updated the command tests to ensure better portability.
* Added new NFS test, nfs_fsstress, to stress NFS using the fsstress test.
* Added new tests for low-level SCSI, virtual SCSI, Asynch IO, & ACL control and management
* Applied more bug fixes, patches, and code cleanups.
We encourage the community to post results, patches or new tests on our mailing list <ltp-list@lists.sf.net> and use the CVS bug tracking facility to report problems that you might encounter with the test suite.
See ChangeLog below.

CHANGELOG --------- - Allowed the test driver to ignore all ( Robbie Williamson ) real-time signals. - Removed the obsolete time() and stime() tests ( Robbie Williamson ) from the default runalltests.sh and ltpstress.sh scripts. - Updated "file_test.sh" with fixes to improve ( Glen Foster ) execution and portability. - Updated "cpio_tests.sh" with fixes to improve ( Glen Foster ) execution and portability. - Updated "cron_tests.sh" with fixes to improve ( Glen Foster ) execution and portability. - Updated "mail_tests.sh" with fixes to improve ( Glen Foster ) execution and portability. - Added Asynchronous I/O (aio) testcases. ( Marty Ridgeway ) - Added file & directory ACL control and ( Marty Ridgeway ) management testcases. - Added testcases for low-level SCSI & virtual ( Marty Ridgeway ) SCSI devices. - Updated direct IO tests to return TCONF if ( Robbie Williamson ) the tested filesystem does not support dio. - Updated acct01 & sockioctl01 to handle ( Robbie Williamson ) situations where /dev/tty0 does not exist. - Updated fsync02 to ensure max_block is always ( Robbie Williamson ) greater than data_blocks. - Updated getgroups03 to allow for better ( Susanne Wintenberger ) stability and platform portabilty. - Updated the modify_ldt testcases to allow the ( Robbie Williamson ) tests the ability to build on installations that use type "user_desc" instead of "modify_ldt_s_s". - Applied IA64 specific fixes to sigaltstack() ( Jacky Malcles ) tests. - Updated some of the utime() tests to sleep ( Glen Foster ) longer than one second (2) to ensure proper execution on IA64. - Updated some of the write() tests to make the ( Susanne Wintenberger ) invalid address test 64bit portable. - Added new NFS stress test: nfs_fsstress. ( Robbie Williamson ) - Updated OpenHPI testsuite. ( Kevin Gao ) - Updated ltpstress.sh to change the maximum ( Robbie Williamson ) number of user processes to "unlimited" before testing begins (ulimit -u).
