+These are "user" contributed scripts that automate testing. These all
+depend on using "make check", so they are included here as an aid to
+helping others automate their own testing. All of these script do
+report filtering on the output from DejaGnu. test-tool and test-g++
+are basically the same script. test-target is the script I use for our
+quarterly release and it is the most sophisticated. It still uses
+"make check" (a make target that start runtest) to produce the
+results, but tests our entire tool chain for native and crosses. It
+also produces a short summary report that gets emailed, as well as
+summary reports. It does regression analysis using the previous test
+run. testit is a very crude and simple Tk GUI for accessing all the
+testing results. Hope these are helpful to anyone, I'd like to collect
+more from the net as they get developed.
