Once the test code is in place in libs/config/test, updating the configuration
test system proceeds as:
* cd into `libs/config/tools` and run `bjam` : this generates the `.cpp`
* cd into `libs/config/tools` and run `bjam`. This generates the `.cpp`
file test cases from the `.ipp` file, updates the
libs/config/test/all/Jamfile.v2, `config_test.cpp` and `config_info.cpp`.
* cd into `libs/config/test/all` and run `bjam `['MACRONAME` compiler-list`] : where
libs/config/test/all/Jamfile.v2, `config_test.cpp` and `config_info.cpp`.[br][br]
* cd into `libs/config/test/all` and run `bjam `['MACRONAME` compiler-list`], where
['MACRONAME] is the name of the new macro, and ['`compiler-list`] is a space separated list of
compilers to test with. You should see the tests pass with those compilers
that don't have the defect, and fail with those that do.
* cd into `libs/config/test` and run `bjam config_info config_test `['`compiler-list`] :
compilers to test with.[br][br]
The xxx_pass_test and the xxx_fail_test [*should both report `**passed**`].[br][br]
If ['MACRONAME] is not defined when it should be defined, xxx_pass_test will not report `**passed**`.
If ['MACRONAME] is defined when it should not be defined, xxx_fail_test will not report `**passed**`.[br][br]
* cd into `libs/config/test` and run `bjam config_info config_test `['`compiler-list`].
`config_info` should build and run cleanly for all the compilers in ['`compiler-list`]
while `config_test` should fail for those that have the defect, and pass for those
that do not.
