- test_external [<prereq>] <message> <external> <script>

Execute a <script> with an <external> interpreter (like perl). This

was added for tests like t9700-perl-git.sh which do most of their

work in an external test script.

test_external \

'GitwebCache::*FileCache*' \

"$PERL_PATH" "$TEST_DIRECTORY"/t9503/test_cache_interface.pl

If the test is outputting its own TAP you should set the

test_external_has_tap variable somewhere before calling the first

test_external* function. See t9700-perl-git.sh for an example.

# The external test will outputs its own plan

test_external_has_tap=1

- test_external_without_stderr [<prereq>] <message> <external> <script>

Like test_external but fail if there's any output on stderr,

instead of checking the exit code.

test_external_without_stderr \

'Perl API' \

"$PERL_PATH" "$TEST_DIRECTORY"/t9700/test.pl
