Subject: [PUSHED] gdb/testsuite: avoid stack addresses in test names
Date: Mon, 10 Jul 2023 12:22:32 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <9f462ddef8456dc3b47e21f5f1995d1119e18b3f.1688988130.git.aburgess@redhat.com> (raw)

When comparing the test results for two different runs of GDB I
noticed a difference in the results for gdb.base/frame-view.exp.

The difference was caused by one of the tests including a stack
address in the test name:

  PASS: gdb.base/frame-view.exp: with_pretty_printer=false: select-frame view 0x7ffff7c5cea8 0x40115b

and

  PASS: gdb.base/frame-view.exp: with_pretty_printer=true: select-frame view 0x7ffff7c5cea8 0x40115b

If for whatever reason the stack address changes between test runs
then it becomes harder to compare results.

Fix this by giving the test a descriptive name that doesn't include a
stack address:

  PASS: gdb.base/frame-view.exp: with_pretty_printer=false: select thread 2 frame from thread 1

and

  PASS: gdb.base/frame-view.exp: with_pretty_printer=true: select thread 2 frame from thread 1

There's no change to what is actually tested after this commit.
