-<H1><A name="nightly">Nightly regression testing</A></H1>
-<P> The nightly regression testing system consists of several shell
- scripts and some perl scripts. The goal is to check out a fresh tree,
- run &quot;make check&quot; on it, record the results and summarize the results to
- the team and to the web site.</P>
-<P> Output can be found on<A HREF="http://bugs.freeswan.org:81/"> adams</A>
-, although the tests are actually run on another project machine.</P>
-<H1><A name="nightlyhowto">How to setup the nightly build</A></H1>
-<P> The best way to do nightly testing is to setup a new account. We
- call the account &quot;build&quot; - you could call it something else, but there
- may still be some references to ~build in the scripts.</P>
-<H2><A NAME="42_1"> Files you need to know about</A></H2>
-<P> As few files as possible need to be extracted from the source tree -
- files are run from the source tree whenever possible. However, there
- are some bootstrap and configuration files that are necessary.</P>
-<P> There are 7 files in testing/utils that are involved:</P>
-<DL>
-<DT> nightly-sample.sh</DT>
-<DD> This is the root of the build process. This file should be copied
- out of the CVS tree, to $HOME/bin/nightly.sh of the build account. This
- file should be invoked from cron.</DD>
-<DT> freeswan-regress-env-sample.sh</DT>
-<DD> This file should be copied to $HOME/freeswan-regress-env.sh. It
- should be edited to localize the values. See below.</DD>
-<DT> regress-cleanup.pl</DT>
-<DD> This file needs to be copied to $HOME/bin/regress-cleanup.pl. It is
- invoked by the nightly file before doing anything else. It removes
- previous nights builds in order to free up disk space for the build
- about to be done.</DD>
-<DT> teammail-sample.sh</DT>
-<DD> A script used to send results email to the &quot;team&quot;. This sample
- script could be copied to $HOME/bin/teammail.sh. This version will PGP
- encrypt all the output to the team members. If this script is used,
- then PGP will have to be properly setup to have the right keys.</DD>
-<DT> regress-nightly.sh</DT>
-<DD> This is the first stage of the nightly build. This stage will call
- other scripts as appropriate, and will extract the source code from
- CVS. This script should be copied to $HOME/bin/regress-nightly.sh</DD>
-<DT> regress-stage2.sh</DT>
-<DD> This is the second stage of the nightly build. It is called in
- place. It essentially sets up the UML setup in umlsetup.sh, and calls
- &quot;make check&quot;.</DD>
-<DT> regress-summarize-results.pl</DT>
-<DD> This script will summarize the results from the tests to a
- permanent directory set by $REGRESSRESULTS. It is invoked from the
- stage2 nightly script.</DD>
-<DT> regress-chart.sh</DT>
-<DD> This script is called at the end of the build process, and will
- summarize each night's results (as saved into $REGRESSRESULTS by
- regress-summarize-results.pl) as a chart using gnuplot. Note that this
- requires at least gnuplot 3.7.2.</DD>

-<H2><A NAME="42_2">Configuring freeswan-regress-env.sh</A></H2>
-<P>For more info on KERNPOOL, UMLPATCH, BASICROOT and SHAREDIR, see<A HREF="umltesting.html">
- User-Mode-Linux testing guide</A>.</P>
-<DL>
-<DT> KERNPOOL</DT>
-<DD> Extract copy of some kernel source to be used for UML builds</DD>
-<DT> UMLPATCH</DT>
-<DD> matching User-Mode-Linux patch.</DD>
-<DT> BASICROOT</DT>
-<DD> the root file system image (see<A HREF="umltesting.html">
- User-Mode-Linux testing guide</A>).</DD>
-<DT> SHAREDIR=${BASICROOT}/usr/share</DT>
-<DD> The /usr/share to use.</DD>
-<DT> REGRESSTREE</DT>
-<DD> A directory in which to store the nightly regression results.
- Directories will be created by date in this tree.</DD>
-<DT> TCPDUMP=tcpdump-3.7.1</DT>
-<DD> The path to the<A HREF="http://www.tcpdump.org/"> tcpdump</A> to
- use. This must have crypto compiled in, and must be at least 3.7.1</DD>
-<DT> KERNEL_RH7_2_SRC=/a3/kernel_sources/linux-2.4.9-13/</DT>
-<DD> An extracted copy of the RedHat 7.2. kernel source. If set, then
- the packaging/rpm-rh72-install-01 test will be run, and an RPM will be
- built as a test.</DD>
-<DT> KERNEL_RH7_3_SRC=/a3/kernel_sources/rh/linux-2.4.18-5</DT>
-<DD> An extracted copy of the RedHat 7.3. kernel source. If set, then
- the packaging/rpm-rh73-install-01 test will be run, and an RPM will be
- built as a test.</DD>
-<DT> NIGHTLY_WATCHERS=&quot;userid,userid,userid&quot;</DT>
-<DD> The list of people who should receive nightly output. This is used
- by teammail.sh</DD>
-<DT> FAILLINES=128</DT>
-<DD> How many lines of failed test output to include in the nightly
- output</DD>
-<DT> PATH=$PATH:/sandel/bin export PATH</DT>
-<DD> You can also override the path if necessary here.</DD>
-<DT> CVSROOT=:pserver:anoncvs@ip212.xs4net.freeswan.org:/freeswan/MASTER</DT>
-<DD> The CVSROOT to use. This example may work for anonymous CVS, but
- will be 12 hours behind the primary, and is still experimental</DD>
-<DT> SNAPSHOTSIGDIR=$HOME/snapshot-sig</DT>
-<DD> For the release tools, where to put the generated per-snapshot
- signature keys</DD>
-<DT> LASTREL=1.97</DT>
-<DD> the name of the last release branch (to find the right per-snapshot
- signature</DD>
