Hi:
As you probably know, run-tests.php runs recursively through each
subdirectory encountered. I've run into circumstances where it is helpful
to have it just run files in the present directory, without recursion. I
have created a patch which watches for an "-l" flag. The -l flag is
similar to the one used with CVS.
Considering this is a simple, optional and helpful change, I hope this can
be applied to the all branches, please.

TESTS=/path/test/dir make test or even TESTS=/path/to/test.phpt make
test
works just fine, already.
There are plans to change run-tests.php so it accepts arguments instead
of environment variables, but nothing happened in this direction, yet.

TESTS=/path/test/dir would still dive into /past/test/dir/subdir,
wouldn't it?

that's not really true, it's more like "nothing has been commited yet" ;)

well i did some of those commits...long ago...or did i miss anything??????
i'd simply use php run-tests.php <whateverfile-or-dir-you-want> ....
if you want local files only without recursion then you can use find but
that doesn't help on windows. Anyway i see no reason because at least until
now there is not a single one extension where this functionality would be of
any use because test directories do not have sub-test-dirs. And btw. for
example:
php run-tests.php ext/dba
is shorter than
php run-tests.php ext/dba/tests
but does the same because of the recursion

ext/standard/tests has ;)
that aside i did not state whether the non-recursive option proposed by
Daniel makes sense, i was just trying to point out that Jans replay
slightly missed the point of the original request ...

Hi Marcus:
Anyway i see no reason because at least until
now there is not a single one extension where this functionality would be of
any use because test directories do not have sub-test-dirs.
The test platform is used in many places beside PHP development itself.
This issue arose for me in the testing of PEAR DB, which does have a
subdirectory.
And btw. for
example:
php run-tests.php ext/dba
is shorter than
php run-tests.php ext/dba/tests
but does the same because of the recursion
And the patch wouldn't change that. It just allows people to choose
whether they want recursion or not.
Thanks,
--Dan

Ah - ok then :-)

Hello Daniel,
since there seems to be a usage i looked into including it.
Unfortunatley your patch doesn't help me. I'd need you to
look into php5's version of the script. There you'll see that
the switch 'l' is already being used. Hence i'd say we go with
'L' unless you find a better name.

True enough.
