2021-07-27	Remove the right socket before starting the daemon	regnat
	For some reason, an old socket occasionally stays here on OSX, causing the subsequent tests to fail
2021-07-27	Allow running all the tests with the daemon	regnat
	When `NIX_DAEMON_PACKAGE` is set, make all the tests use the Nix daemon. That way we can test every piece of Nix functionality both with and without the daemon. Tests for which using the daemon isn’t possible or doesn’t make sens can selectively be disabled with `needLocalStore`
2021-03-16	Make the tests (optionnally) run in another derivation	regnat
	That way we can run them without rebuilding Nix
2021-03-16	Add a test ensuring compatibility with an old daemon	regnat
	This requires adding `nix` to its own closure which is a bit unfortunate, but as it is optional (the test will be disabled if `OUTER_NIX` is unset) it shouldn't be too much of an issue. (Ideally this should go in another derivation so that we can build Nix and run the test independently, but as the tests are running in the same derivation as the build it's a bit complicated to do so).
2021-03-01	Move the CA tests to a sub-directory	regnat
	Requires a slight update to the test infra to work properly, but having the possibility to group tests that way makes the whole thing quite cleaner imho
2021-01-14	Add 'nix daemon' command	Eelco Dolstra

2021-01-06	Make sodium a required dependency	Eelco Dolstra

2020-07-23	Remove references to xmllint	Eelco Dolstra

2020-07-03	Shorten the path to the test root	regnat
	Fix a socket length failure on the OSX builders
2020-07-02	Run the tests in parallel	regnat
	Cause the time needed to run the testsuite to drop from ~4mins to ~40s
2020-06-25	build-remote.sh: Test LegacySSHStore	Eelco Dolstra

2020-04-14	add NIX_USER_CONF_FILES	zimbatm
	Motivation: maintain project-level configuration files. Document the whole situation a bit better so that it corresponds to the implementation, and add NIX_USER_CONF_FILES that allows overriding which user files Nix will load during startup.
2019-07-30	Disable findRuntimeRoots on darwin when running tests because lsof is slow	Bas van Dijk
	See: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/3011
2019-03-04	Restore --init calls in tests	Eelco Dolstra

2019-02-22	remove noop uses of nix-store --init	zimbatm
	the nix-store --init command is a noop apparently
2018-11-07	Enable sandboxing by default	Eelco Dolstra
	Closes #179.
2018-08-06	Require libbrotli	Eelco Dolstra

2018-06-06	tests: more robust check for user namespaces availability (canUseSandbox)	Aleksandr Pashkov
	Issue https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/2165
2018-02-01	Remove obsolete references to manifests	Eelco Dolstra
	Closes #323.
2018-01-13	Fix tests using user namespaces on kernels that don't have it	Tuomas Tynkkynen
	Disable various tests if the kernel doesn't support unprivileged user namespaces (e.g. Arch Linux disables them) or disable them via a sysctl (Debian, Ubuntu). Fixes #1521 Fixes #1625
2017-12-30	use libbrotli directly when available	Will Dietz
	* Look for both 'brotli' and 'bro' as external command, since upstream has renamed it in newer versions. If neither are found, current runtime behavior is preserved: try to find 'bro' on PATH. * Limit amount handed to BrotliEncoderCompressStream to ensure interrupts are processed in a timely manner. Testing shows negligible performance impact. (Other compression sinks don't seem to require this)
2017-11-24	fetchGit: Ignore tarballTtl if rev is set and not in the repo.	Shea Levy
	Fixes #1697.
2017-11-15	Doh	Eelco Dolstra

2017-10-23	NIX_BUILD_HOOK variable is gone	Eelco Dolstra

2017-07-06	Remove unused variable from test script	Robert Vollmert

2017-06-19	macOS: Ugly hack to make the tests succeed	Eelco Dolstra
	Sandboxes cannot be nested, so if Nix's build runs inside a sandbox, it cannot use a sandbox itself. I don't see a clean way to detect whether we're in a sandbox, so use a test-specific hack. https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/1413
2016-11-26	Revert "Get rid of unicode quotes (#1140)"	Eelco Dolstra
	This reverts commit f78126bfd6b6c8477fcdbc09b2f98772dbe9a1e7. There really is no need for such a massive change...
2016-11-25	Get rid of unicode quotes (#1140)	Guillaume Maudoux

2016-10-19	Handle $TMPDIR ending with a slash	Eelco Dolstra
	This caused the gc test to fail on Darwin.
2016-08-10	Remove $NIX_DB_DIR	Eelco Dolstra
	This variable has no reason to exist, given $NIX_STATE_DIR.
2016-07-21	Shut up warning	Eelco Dolstra

2016-05-31	Fix nix-profile test in a chroot	Eelco Dolstra
	http://hydra.nixos.org/build/36462078
2016-05-30	Forgot to commit	Eelco Dolstra

2016-04-11	Remove manifest support	Eelco Dolstra
	Manifests have been superseded by binary caches for years. This also gets rid of nix-pull, nix-generate-patches and bsdiff/bspatch.
2016-03-24	Use shorter daemon socket path in tests	Eelco Dolstra
	Otherwise we hit the 104 character limit. http://hydra.nixos.org/build/33562028
2015-02-10	Make libsodium an optional dependency	Eelco Dolstra

2014-09-23	Fix use of PAGER during tests	Eelco Dolstra

2014-08-13	Remove log2html.xsl and friends	Eelco Dolstra
	It's part of Hydra now.
2014-02-17	Add a test for repairing paths	Eelco Dolstra

2014-02-01	Fix logging test	Eelco Dolstra

2014-02-01	Fix the nix-profile test	Eelco Dolstra

2013-11-25	Add support for ‘make installcheck’	Eelco Dolstra

2013-01-02	Urgggh	Eelco Dolstra
	http://hydra.nixos.org/build/3661100
2012-10-03	Rename nix-worker to nix-daemon	Eelco Dolstra

2012-09-13	Add a test for nix-profile.sh	Eelco Dolstra

2012-07-27	Use "set -x" in the tests to see where a test fails	Eelco Dolstra

2012-07-26	Clear NIX_STORE when running the tests	Eelco Dolstra

2012-04-14	Urgh, modified the wrong file...	Eelco Dolstra

2012-03-19	Replace "make check" with "make installcheck"	Eelco Dolstra
	Ensuring that the tests work from the build tree requires a growing number of nasty hacks. The tests also don't verify that the installed Nix actually works. Thus, the tests now require "make install" to have been run.
2012-03-18	Drop the externals directory	Eelco Dolstra
	Nix now requires SQLite and bzip2 to be pre-installed. SQLite is detected using pkg-config. We required DBD::SQLite anyway, so depending on SQLite is not a big problem. The --with-bzip2, --with-openssl and --with-sqlite flags are gone.
