Hi, I have downloaded and built luatex 0.95.0. So far so good. But, how do I test luatex? Is there a test suite somewhere that checks (almost) everything? I can always build some really large documents, and verify them, but that just shows that well-behaved code works, and does not guarantee full code coverage.

no, if only because you can do almost everything and there is no way to predict what used can mess around with node lists in lua

testing documents is okay (here we run a test suite that when passed at least indicates that nothing serious is wrong but of course it's never complete) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.nl | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

I appreciate that tests are never complete. What I am looking for is something that catches most offenses. That test suite is what I am looking for. Is it available somewhere? Or could you make it available? Do you have suggestions for documents to use (other than the test suite). Regards /Lars Hamrén

for what it is worth you could run the LaTeX regression test suite which is also set up to run tests against the luatex engine frank
