ACATS Test Modification List

ACATS Test Modification List

Version 2.5C
July 22, 2002

Changes from the last list:

Test C761010 has been improved to avoid calling Report.Comment after Report.Result. (This is defined to be non-conforming behavior by the ACATS documentation.)

Test BC3009C was changed to include only the direct instantiation of "self" (this is illegal because "self" isn't generic within the unit). New L-Tests (LC30001, LC30002, LC30003) were added to check the main, post-compilation rule across library units. This is more user-oriented (as recursive instantiation is much more likely to occur in separate library units than in one unit), and properly handles the post-compilation rule.

New tests inserted between July 1, 2002 and October 1, 2002 will become required for conformity assessments on April 1, 2003. New tests inserted between April 1, 2002 and July 1, 2002 will become required for conformity assessments on January 1, 2003. New tests added to the ACATS before January 1, 2002 are now required for conformity assessments. The effective dates of tests are marked in the lists.

List explanation:

Test numbers given are for the basic test. Categories are "Withdrawn" (the test should not be processed for Ada conformity assessments); "Allowed Modification" (either the original test or the modified one should be processed for Ada conformity assessments); "Modified" (the modified test must be processed for Ada conformity assessments); "Pending New" (the test does not need to be processed for Ada conformity assessments, but will be added in the future); "New" (the test is processed for Ada conformity assessments).

ACATS version labels are provided with all new and modified tests. Use this label to retrieve the test from the ACATS VCS. See "How to get new and modified tests".

In citations, line numbers are given relative to the start of a test file in the format of '@<line#,line#,...>'; if a test program comprises more than one file, then the particular file will be indicated by "fn", where "n" is the test-program name's file-designator numeral. E.g., "B38103E : @f1-31, ... " denotes test file b38103e1.ada. In cases where there are two or more rationales for different errors in a test program, these different rationales with their respective line citations are listed on separate lines. References to the Ada 83 & Ada 95 standards are given in the format:

<section|chapter>.<clause>[.<subclause>]:<paragraph>

These references are to the Ada 95 standard unless "Ada83" is specified.

How to get new and modified tests:

The official home of the ACATS test suite is the ACAA web site. The site can be accessed from the Compilers and Conformance section of the Ada IC web site (www.adaic.org). It also can be accessed directly at www.ada-auth.org.

The complete set of official new and modified tests are available in the Mod_2_5C Zip and Tar files on the ACAA web site.

Individual new and modified tests can be retrieved from the ACATS VCS. Simply navigate to the appropriate directory (folder), and select the test you want. Select the revision you want (usually the most recent) and it will be retrieved for you. Tests are stored in directories that correspond to the test's prefix. For instance, the test CD92001.A will be found in the CD directory. You can also browse the differences between versions of a test. [In case of a conflict, the files in the ACATS VCS should be considered the 'official' versions.]

If you cannot get the files from the official site or you cannot get the files in a format appropriate for your processor, please contact your ACAL.

The baseline ACATS 2.5 is available in various formats on the ACAA web site.
