Writing unit tests for newlib/libc/unix/dirname.c

Writing unit tests for newlib/libc/unix/dirname.c

Hello,

Newbie here.  "Long time listener, first time caller!"
I am an "ok" C programmer, but definitely not expert / kernel-level.

I am trying to write unit tests for newlib/libc/unix/dirname.c.
(That function has so many tricky corner cases!)
I tried to follow from: newlib/testsuite/newlib.string/memcpy-1.c
However, I cannot make unit tests run via: make test

What am I doing wrong?  How can I run the unit tests from memcpy-1.c?

Last: I know that newlib != cygwin.  If I sent this email the wrong mailing
list, please let me know.

Kind regards,
Kevin ARPE

You didn't tell us what happened when you ran   make test.
