#693: Missing instructions for running Cabal's testsuite ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: tibbe | Owner: Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: HEAD Severity: normal | Resolution: fixed Keywords: | Difficulty: unknown Ghcversion: | Platform: ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Comment(by ttuegel): Actually, I don't think you can test an in-place version of Cabal this way. Yes, the main testsuite program will be compiled against the new version of Cabal, but some (most?) of the tests compile and run their own Setup.hs files, which will pick up the _installed_ version of Cabal instead of the version you _think_ you are testing. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/693#comment:6 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
