Malva ===== What is Malva? -------------- Malva is a test suite for alternative JVMs. It tests core Java APIs such as 'java.lang' and 'java.lang.reflect' that require implementation on the JVM side. The primary goal for Malva is to find compatibility problems in alternative JVMs but its also useful as a regression test suite for JVM developers. The test cases look a lot like JUnit tests. We do not, however, use JUnit because it relies on core APIs such as annotation support and reflection that we want to test. Each test class is written as a standalone runnable class that implements the main() method to make sure tests are as isolated as possible. That should make pin-pointing the root cause of a bug easier to JVM developers. Malva targets the Java 1.6 APIs as described in the API specification at: http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/ Running the Test Suite ---------------------- To compile the test suite with 'javac' and run the tests with 'java' use: make check All tests should pass. If you want to use an alternative compiler or JVM pass the JAVAC and JAVA options to make: make check JAVAC=ecj JAVA=cacao Licensing --------- Copyright (C) 2010 Pekka Enberg Malva is licensed under the Apache License version 2.0.
