Previously, cli-test would, by default, check that a stderr output is strictly identical to a saved outcome.
When there was no instructions on how to interpret stderr, it would default to requiring it to be empty.
There are many tests cases though where stderr content doesn't matter, and we are mainly interested in the return code of the cli.
For these cases, it was possible to set a .ignore document, which would instruct to ignore stderr content.
This PR update the logic, to make .ignore the default.
When willing to check that stderr content is empty, one must now add an empty .strict file.
This will allow status message to evolve without triggering many cli-tests errors.
This is especially important when some of these status include compression results, which may change as a result of compression optimizations.
It also makes it easier to add new tests which only care about the CLI's return code.
`./run.py --set-exact-output` will update `stdout.expect` and
`stderr.expect` to match the expected output. This doesn't apply to
outputs which use `.glob` or `.ignore`.
```
for f in $(find . \( -path ./.git -o -path ./tests/fuzz/corpora \) -prune -o -type f);
do
sed -i 's/Facebook, Inc\./Meta Platforms, Inc. and affiliates./' $f;
done
```
Fixes#3212.
Long literal and match lengths had an off-by-one error in ZSTD_getSequenceLength.
Fix the off-by-one error, and add a golden compression test that catches the bug.
Also run all the golden tests in the cli-tests framework.
Newer less versions appear to have changed how stderr
and stdout are showing error messages. hardcode the
expected behavior to make the tests pass with any less version.
Also set locale to C so that the strings are matching.
The zstd symlinks, notably `zstdcat`, weren't working as expected
because only the `tests/cli-tests/bin/zstd` wrapper was symlinked. We
still invoked `zstd` with the name `zstd`. The fix is to create a
directory of zstd symlinks in `tests/cli-tests/bin/symlinks` for each
name that zstd recognizes. And when `tets/cli-tests/bin/zstd` is
invoked, it selects the correct symlink to call.
See the test `zstd-cli/zstdcat.sh` for an example of how it would work.
* playtests.sh: fix for a bug in macos' /bin/sh that persists temporary env vars when introduced before function calls
* cli-tests/run.py: Do not use existing ZSTD* envvars
