3.17.1 Using testreport

On many systems, the program can be run with the command:

% cd verification
% ./testreport -ieee

1. Locate all ``valid'' test directories. Here, valid tests are defined to be those directories within the current directory (which is generally verification) that contain a subdirectory and file with the names results/output.txt.

2. Then within each valid test:
   1. run genmake2 to produce a Makefile
   2. build an executable
   3. run the executable
   4. compare and the output of the executable with the contents of certain variables within TESTNAME/results/output.txt
   5. print and, if requested (with the -addr=EMAIL_ADDRESS option), send a MIME-encoded email with the testing results
