The 'tables_bad' then contains experiments, older +table revisions or malformed data to test the parser error path. + +The "diffs" directory contains reference output generated by the 'nbft-dump' +utility that is being compared against actual testcase run output. Everytime +'nbft-dump.c' is modified these reference output files need to be regenerated +by calling `ninja -C .build nbft-diffs` over the configured meson project. + +The tests are typically ran as part of the standard `meson test -C .build` +invocation. |
