I am somewhat stymied by the proper test procedures for the current boost release candidate. (ie, RC_1_34_0 branch.)
The documentation: http://www.boost.org/tools/regression/xsl_reports/runner/instructions.html
Seems simple enough. However, it lies.
;)
First of all, the links to regression.py are dead.
I also made this experience. I already corrected the links in the CVS version of this document, but not on the website. (I am not sure about the policy of changing the current website.)
In addition, I'm more interested in checking my local build, after I built it, not really the workflow envisioned from this script. (As documented.)
In this case you might be better off going to boost_root/status and issue "bjam toolset=<my-toolset>" from there. Probably it also is a good idea to capture the output to a file for later review. The resression.py is good for sharing your test results with others on the web site. Roland
