[gnu.bash.bug] Call for bash test scripts

dce@sony.com (David Elliott) (11/20/89)

I've been made the unofficial keeper of the bash test suite, which
currently consists of one shell script.  If things go as planned,
future releases of bash will include a suite of regression/behavior
tests to be run as a simple verification.

What I'd like to do is to have every script be self-contained and by
default silent.  The exit code should indicate success (0) or failure
(nonzero).  The script can print debugging output if the argument
DEBUG is given.

Mail your scripts and ideas for tests to either dce@sony.com or
bash-scripts@aurel.cns.caltech.edu.

Please.  Only mail the scripts to bash-scripts@aurel.cns.caltech.edu.
In this way we can be sure that your scripts get to the right person,
no matter who that person (or persons) may be.

Thanks,
