KTAP v1 only specifies the output format of very basic test information: test result and test name. Any additional test information either gets added to general diagnostic data or is not included in the output at all. The purpose of KTAP metadata is to create a framework to include and easily identify additional important test information in KTAP. KTAP metadata could include any test information that is pertinent for user interaction before or after the running of the test. For example, the test file path or the test speed. Since this includes a large variety of information, this specification will recognize notable types of KTAP metadata to ensure consistent format across test frameworks. See the full list of types in the specification. Example of KTAP Metadata: KTAP version 2 #:ktap_test: main #:ktap_arch: uml 1..1 KTAP version 2 #:ktap_test: suite_1 #:ktap_subsystem: example #:ktap_test_file: lib/test.c 1..2 ok 1 test_1 #:ktap_test: test_2 #:ktap_speed: very_slow # test_2 has begun #:custom_is_flaky: true ok 2 test_2 # suite_1 has passed ok 1 suite_1 The changes to the KTAP specification outline the format, location, and different types of metadata. Reviewed-by: David Gow Signed-off-by: Rae Moar Reviewed-by: Kees Cook --- Changes since v2: - Change format of metadata line from "# prefix_type: value" to "#:prefix_type: value". - Add examples of edge cases, such as diagnostic information interrupting metadata lines and lines in the wrong location, to the example in the specification. - Add current list of accepted prefixes. - Add notes on indentation and generated files. - Fix a few typos.
