Re: test for binutis


Hi Rain,

Is there a test set just for binutils like spec2000 for GCC?

Short Answer: no.


Long Answer: yes.

Really Long Answer: It depends upon what you mean by a "test set". The binutils do have a set of testsuites that check the assembler, the linker and the other tools. These are part of the binutils sources and consist of lots of small test files in the various */testsuite source directories.

But then GCC also has a similar set of testsuites and you did not mention these. So perhaps you are more interested in commercial testsuites like Spec2000, EEMBC, PlumHall etc. In which case the answer is that there is no such testsuite specifically for the binutils. But all of these testsuites do still check two of the binutils main tools - the assembler and the linker - since they are used as part of the compilation process.

Cheers
  Nick
