1The tests in this directory where written at the same time tmpfs was 2developed. This is why, if you follow the order of tests in the Atffile, 3you will notice that they start checking the most basic things and end 4checking the less common ones. Furthermore, tests try not to use features 5tested by further tests in the lists. 6 7However, the above is not the most appropriate testing procedure when you 8have a working file system because some separation in test programs does 9not make sense afterwards. 10 11Many of the tests here are applicable to any file system. They should be 12refactored to be reusable on any mounted file system, which could also 13remove the need to do the mount/unmount steps in each and every test case. 14 15Possibly take a look at the file system tests in FreeBSD. They seem to be 16much more complete, even though they are written in Perl and therefore not 17directly usable. 18
