Introducing Makefile.test: A Generic Makefile to Run Test Executables
Blog post from Box
Box has open-sourced Makefile.test, a tool designed to enhance software quality and development speed by facilitating test-driven development. Makefile.test is a generic makefile that can run any executable tests, supporting parallel and serial execution across various platforms without requiring code changes. It is particularly useful for projects with diverse test scripts by streamlining the execution process, and it supports multiple ways to invoke make while ensuring portability across Linux and macOS. Makefile.test allows running tests in parallel or sequentially, depending on the development needs, and includes robust process cleanup to handle interruptions and prevent orphaned processes. This tool has been rapidly adopted at Box and is open for contributions to extend its capabilities.
