Re: FIPs

[Andrew Josey <ajosey@rdg.opengroup.org>]

An explanation of the result codes follows below:

*PASS - a test result belonging to this group is considered to be a pass
for compliance testing purposes

  Pass - the test has been executed correctly and to completion without
  any kind of problem

  Warning - the functionality is acceptable, but you should be aware
  that later revisions of the relevant standards or specification may
  change the requirements in this area.

  FIP - additional information is provided which needs to be checked
  manually.

  Unsupported - an optional feature is not available or not supported
  in the implementation under test.

  Not in Use - some tests may not be required in certain test modes or
  when an interface can be implemented by a macro or
  function and there are two versions of the test only one is used.

  Untested - no test written to check a particular feature or an optional
  facility needed to perform a test is not available on the
  system.

*FAIL - a test result belonging to this group is considered to be a fail
for compliance testing purposes (unless the failure has been waived).

   Fail - the interface did not behave as expected.

   Uninitiated - the particular test in question did not start to execute.

   Unresolved - the test started but did not reach the point where the
   test was able to report success or failure.

   Unreported - a major error occurred during the testset execution.

regards
Andrew
