Why? A POSIX-compliant platform is required to run all of them without changes. Seems like a good test-by-fire to me. I believe I ran under TET1.10 at Novell for the UnixWare 2.x testing. I used dTET2.3 under OpenBSD for NIST/PCTSthe other day More information: http://www.nist.gov/itl/div897/pubs/fip151-2.htm I suggest obtaining: d. Test Methods for Measuring Conformance to POSIX, IEEE Std 1003.3-1991. e. Test Methods for Measuring Conformance to POSIX.1, IEEE Std 2003.1-1992. Methods are described in the HTML document, above.
