are the LLVM pro's and cons of QMTest still valid?

[Andreas Saebjoernsen]

Hi Mark,
Thank you for your quick reply and offering to answer some technical
questions! Based on your reply
I assume the concerns from the LLVM mailing list are not valid, and
that is good.

I have a couple of high-level questions about QMTest:

1. The last update to QMTest was in 2008. Has the current features of
QMTest been
    verified to work correctly on newer and older versions of linux,
windows and Mac OS X?

2. We currently build and test ROSE with autotools
(libtool/automake/autoconf/gmake).
    Our project pass 'make check/distcheck/clean/distclean'. Most of
our tests are functional
    tests that test specific features with a custom program. The tests
depend on many test
    programs that are compiled with make.

    Since QMTest has it's own test runner I imagine there will be some
transition if we are to use
    it. Do you have a recommended way of using QMTest to test an
autotools project? It would be
    ideal if you have an example or can point to a project that
implement your recommended way
    of testing. One of my biggest questions is how to support libtool
since we don't install libraries or
    programs before building and testing.

3. How is the usability of QMTest when testing locally on a developers
machine? 'make check' can
    easily run the tests for a directory at a time, and if required it
will automatically rebuild dependencies.

Best,
Andreas
