GNU Coreutils

For instance, I just made my own ls implementation in C++, how can I run the GNU coreutils tests for ls on my implementation? I just saw the repository, it does not have any instructions on testing (maybe I missed something)

I believe uutils has some tests

Hmm, do they reuse tests from coreutils or have their own?

[languid sinew]

I don't know and I didn't bother to check

[hexed epoch]

Since it is a rewrite, I presume they test against coreutils

[languid sinew]

you know exactly as much about this as I do

you can also refer to POSIX to write tests
