While simple, this interface is what legacy test programs use 39and what test programs written with many other testing libraries use too. 40.Pp 41Kyua supports this interface for two main reasons: first, to simplify the 42incorporation of legacy test programs into a Kyua test suite; and, second, 43to ensure that the Kyua run-time engine does not become tied to a 44particular test interface. 45.Pp 46The results of a plain test are one of the following: 47.Bl -tag -width passedXX 48.It passed 49If the test program exits with a success exit code; i.e. 0. 50.It failed 51If the test program exits with a failure exit code; i.e. not 0. 52.It broken 53If the test program exits due to any other reason (e.g. it crashes) or 54if it fails to be executed. 55.El 56.Pp 57Plain test programs are executed with the same isolation features as 58ATF test programs; see 59.Xr kyua-atf-interface 7 . 60.Sh SEE ALSO 61.Xr kyua-test 1 , 62.Xr kyuafile 5 , 63.Xr kyua-atf-interface 7 64
