[Bug 1347958] Re: Minor inconsistency in d/tests/control format

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package autopkgtest - 3.3.1

---------------
autopkgtest (3.3.1) unstable; urgency=medium


  * Accept comma separators in Tests:, Restrictions:, and Features: fields;
    this is consistent with Depends: and avoids skipping tests. (LP: #1347958)
  * Generalize implementation of getting an interactive shell in testbeds.
    Most runners now don't need to provide a hook_shell() any more.
  * Export install environment to interactive testbed shells, so that
    unpacked test depends in the temp dir are accessible. (LP: #1339103)
  * lxc: Don't fail on a nonexisting /etc/environment or /etc/default/locale.
    (LP: #1348749)
  * adb ssh script: Add --apt-update option to run "apt-get update" (with
    temporarily switching to r/w), to run tests on older development images.
    (LP: #1342838)
  * Drop the very short and unnecessary install timeouts from the NullRunner
    tests.

Title:
  Minor inconsistency in d/tests/control format

Status in “autopkgtest” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  It's only a minor inconsistency, but I find it a little strange that
  items in the Tests: and Restrictions: headers are space separated, but
  items in the Depends: are comma separated.

  I was faced with this when I accidentally comma separated the
  Restrictions field for one of my tests, e.g.:

  Restrictions: isolation-container, allow-stderr

  and adt-run did not run the test.  It also didn't tell me that it was
  skipping the test or why it was skipping it; it was just silently
  skipping it.  Once I removed the comma, the test was run.
