Joachim Wiberg a664fd7192 Add plugin and test to reproduce failing tests since c9fe9af
With all the change and revert mess of the HOOK_BASEFS_UP tests started
failing due to usr.so and sys.so failed to set up their conditions.  It
then became clear that boomisc.so cleaned up /run ... with the revert
we got service_register() to be called before global_rlimit[] was setup
causing services registered by plugins, before conf_init(), to crash.

This plugin and test is here to ensure we catch this problem in case of
any future refactor.

Finit Test Suite

Finit comes with a set of tests and a small framework for running them. Contributors are encouraged to write new tests when implementing features, or fixing bugs.

Each test is run in isolation, in it's own namespace. Finit will therefore be able to be launched as PID 1. Since it's also running with it's own root directory it will be able to function properly without having any super user privileges in the host environment.

Running tests

To run the test suite, first build Finit, e.g:

./configure --prefix=/usr --exec-prefix= --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var
make -j9 clean all

Then run (parallel does not work atm):

make check

make check will set up the required assets for the test environment, and then run the full set of tests. The environment is not removed afterwards so at this point individual tests can be executed without having to run the entire test suite, which is handy when developing new tests or debugging existing test. To execute an individual test, simply invoke the script containing it:

./test/name-of-the-test.sh

Another way to run a single (or more) test(s) is to define the TESTS environment variable:

TESTS="start-kill-service" make check
