This is sort of a "generative" (aka property-based) approach to testing makefiles. So, I'd like to see a variation that can find a minimal failing subset of the makefile rules, as in QuickCheck: > In QuickCheck, assertions are written about logical properties that a function should fulfill. Then QuickCheck attempts to generate a test case that falsifies such assertions. Once such a test case is found, QuickCheck tries to reduce it to a minimal failing subset by removing or simplifying input data that are unneeded to make the test fail. -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QuickCheck |
