part of the official libcurl API http://curl.haxx.se/lxr/source/lib/README.curlx
The documented way of using them would be to use timeval.c as a source code file.
The above described method works very well when statically linking libcurl and
apps, test programs, but has several drawbacks when you build a true shared
libcurl (i.e. Name space clash at linkage stage as functions are defined more
than once. Windows makefiles are not capable of handling this system of
source-level sharing)
So...
Now testutil.h and testutil.c define and implement tutil_tvnow and tutil_tvdiff
which replace curlx_tvnow and curlx_tvdiff for the libtest programs. Doing this
we avoid the above described problems, and the code in the testsuite does not
impose the need to keep those functions public in libcurl even when not part of
the API.

open file descriptors is greater than FD_SETSIZE minus SAFETY_MARGIN,

are not, due mainly to the lack of support for XML character entities
(e.g. & => & ). This will make it easier to validate test files using
tools like xmllint, as well as edit and view them using XML tools.
something went wrong like it got a bad response code back from the server,
libcurl would leak memory. Added test case 538 to verify the fix.
I also noted that the connection would get cached in that case, which
doesn't make sense since it cannot be re-use when the authentication has
failed. I fixed that issue too at the same time, and also that the path
would be "remembered" in vain for cases where the connection was about to
get closed.
responded with a single status line and no headers nor body. Starting now, a
HTTP response on a persistent connection (i.e not set to be closed after the
response has been taken care of) must have Content-Length or chunked
encoding set, or libcurl will simply assume that there is no body.
To my horror I learned that we had no less than 57(!) test cases that did bad
HTTP responses like this, and even the test http server (sws) responded badly
when queried by the test system if it is the test system. So although the
actual fix for the problem was tiny, going through all the newly failing test
cases got really painful and boring.
be clear of warnings. Uncomment it if this module is further modified.
The "warnings" module requires perl 5.006 or later. Previous perl
versions don't have it and die on missing modules.
server holds not only its two main pids, but also the pidfile of the test
server and the 'slavepidfiles' for ftp* servers. This allows a better control
when stopping servers.
Now from runtests.pl when test servers are stopped they are signalled in
sequence TERM, INT and KILL allowing time in between for them to die. This
will give us a chance of gracefully stopping test servers, which we didn't
have when we were killing them in first instance.
