Great. Although this is more for the fpc-devel list, isn't it?
In Linux , it could be apply the Free Pascal tests as a normal user . The same tests can applied in DragonFly BSD when FPC port is ready .
In that part there is no problem .

I extended the readme.txt.
Beware that running all tests can take a long time.

The readme.txt become very easy to understand .
Before receiving this message , I have prepared myself a note how to apply tests as a user ( not "root" )
My notes are the following with respect to Linux :
1. Create a directory as {$HOME}/{$Testing_Lazarus} where {$Testing_Lazarus} is a selected name .
2. Copy /lib64/lazarus/test/ into {$HOME}/{$Testing_Lazarus}
3. Copy /lib64/lazarus/lazbuild into {$HOME}/{$Testing_Lazarus}
4. Compile {$HOME}/{$Testing_Lazarus}/test/runtests.lpi
5. Compile {$HOME}/{$Testing_Lazarus}/test/runtestsgui.lpi
6. Execute {$HOME}/{$Testing_Lazarus}/test/runtestsgui by double clicking on it .
Wait for a while to complete tests .
At the end of tests , save the generated XML file . 7 . Open a console terminal in {$HOME}/{$Testing_Lazarus}/test/
8. ./runtests displays a help information .
9 . With respect to help information , write an execution statement : ./runtests --all --format={latext | plain | xml }
--file=Name_of_the_output_file.{tex | txt | xml }
Wait for a while to complete tests .
Also I have compiled other programs in other directories .
Except
Compilation of
.../test/testresult-db/importtestresults.lpi
is giving
Error: Error while linking
the other programs are compiled correctly .
My Lazarus is v1.2.6 from Linux x86_64 release .
If you include information about other programs , the readme.txt will be much more informative .
At present , there are FPC packages for NetBSD and OpenBSD , but there are NOT Lazarus packages ( if I am not wrong ) . I want to help to generate a Lazarus package for DragonFly BSD as much as possible . For this , testing is a vital step .
By using this experience , perhaps we can help to generate Lazarus packages for NetBSD and OpenBSD also .
Thank you very much .
