+====== The MINIX 3 Test Suite ======
+The MINIX 3 sources include a test suite in ''minix/tests''. Primarily, it tests POSIX conformance. This page describes how to run the test suite.
+===== Compile the test suite within MINIX 3 =====
+Supposing you have [[.:usinggit|cloned the Minix source code]] in ''/usr/src'', type at the command prompt (#)
+<code>
+# cd /usr/src/minix/tests
+# make
+# make install
+</code>
+and wait until it completes all the compilations. The tests will be installed in ''/usr/tests/minix-posix/''.
+===== Run the test suite =====
+To test the system, type
+<code>
+# cd /usr/tests/minix-posix
+# ./run
+</code>
+to run the test programs.
+**Note**: the full test set will be performed only when you are root, so you should start the ''./run'' script as root.
