@ -98,6 +98,20 @@ To run a subset of tests, you can use filters:
``./scripts/soltest.sh -t TestSuite/TestName --ipcpath /tmp/testeth/geth.ipc``,
where ``TestName`` can be a wildcard ``*``.
For example, here's an example test you might run;
``./scripts/soltest.sh -t "yulOptimizerTests/disambiguator/*" --no-ipc --no-smt``.
This will test all the tests for the disambiguator.
If you want to debug using GDB, make sure you build differently than the "usual".
For example, you could run the following command in your ``build`` folder:
::
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ..
make
This will create symbols such that when you debug a test using the ``--debug`` flag, you will have acecess to functions and varialbes in which you can break or print with.
The script ``./scripts/tests.sh`` also runs commandline tests and compilation tests
in addition to those found in ``soltest``.
