A disks section in testconfig will override the disks section in
megatest.config. This can be used to allocate disks on a per-test or per item
basis.
Controlled waiver propagation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If test is FAIL and previous test in run with same MT_TARGET is WAIVED then apply the following rules from the testconfig:
If a waiver check is specified in the testconfig apply the check and if it passes then set this FAIL to WAIVED
Waiver check has two parts, 1) a list of waiver, rulename, filepatterns and 2) the rulename script spec (note that "diff" and "logpro" are predefined)
-----------------
###### EXAMPLE FROM testconfig #########
# matching file(s) will be diff'd with previous run and logpro applied
# if PASS or WARN result from logpro then WAIVER state is set
#
[waivers]
# logpro_file rulename input_glob
waiver_1 logpro lookittmp.log
[waiver_rules]
# This builtin rule is the default if there is no <waivername>.logpro file
# diff diff %file1% %file2%
# This builtin rule is applied if a <waivername>.logpro file exists
# logpro diff %file1% %file2% | logpro %waivername%.logpro %waivername%.html

A disks section in testconfig will override the disks section in
megatest.config. This can be used to allocate disks on a per-test or per item
basis.
Controlled waiver propagation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If test is FAIL and previous test in run with same MT_TARGET is WAIVED
or if the test/itempath is listed under the matching target in the
waivers roll forward file (see below for file spec) then apply the
following rules from the testconfig: If a waiver check is specified in
the testconfig apply the check and if it passes then set this FAIL to
WAIVED
Waiver check has two parts, 1) a list of waiver, rulename,
filepatterns and 2) the rulename script spec (note that "diff" and
"logpro" are predefined)
-----------------
###### EXAMPLE FROM testconfig #########
# matching file(s) will be diff'd with previous run and logpro applied
# if PASS or WARN result from logpro then WAIVER state is set
#
[waivers]
# logpro_file rulename input_glob
waiver_1 logpro lookittmp.log
[waiver_rules]
# This builtin rule is the default if there is no <waivername>.logpro file
# diff diff %file1% %file2%
# This builtin rule is applied if a <waivername>.logpro file exists
# logpro diff %file1% %file2% | logpro %waivername%.logpro %waivername%.html
-----------------
Waiver roll-forward files
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
To transfer waivers from one Megatest area to another it is possible
to dump waivers into a file and reference that file in another area.
.Dumping the waivers
---------------------------
megatest -list-waivers -runname %-a > mywaivers.dat
---------------------------
.Referencing the saved waivers
---------------------------
# In megatest.config, all files listed will be loaded - recomended to use
# variables to select directorys to minimize what gets loaded.
[setup]
waivers-dirs /path/to/waiver/files /another/path/to/waiver/files
---------------------------
.Waiver files format
---------------------------
[the/target/here]
# comments are fine
testname1/itempath A comment about why it was waived
testname2 A comment for a non-itemized test
---------------------------
