compiletest: inconsistent and inconvenient ways to request verbose test output #134110
Open
Description
opened on Dec 10, 2024
compiletest has some strange --nocapture
(which is a libtest thing) support for ui
tests but inconsistently for other test suites. crashes
test suite uses an env var COMPILETEST_VERBOSE_CRASHES=1
to unhide the crashes test failure output. run-make
test suite has multiple layer of hiding going on.
There's also the bootstrap verbose/verbose tests -> compiletest handling.
