Build Swift first using utils/build-script -R, other settings will need different directories below. Add these lines to ~/.bashrc, call with run-test path/to/test:

LLVM_DIR="/path/to/Swift/llvm"
SWIFT_BUILD_DIR="/path/to/Swift/build/Ninja-ReleaseAssert/swift-macosx-x86_64"

run-validation-test() {
    $LLVM_DIR/utils/lit/lit.py -a --param swift_site_config=$SWIFT_BUILD_DIR/validation-test-macosx-x86_64/lit.site.cfg $1
}

OS X Screencast to animated GIF

This gist shows how to create a GIF screencast using only free OS X tools: QuickTime, ffmpeg, and gifsicle.

Instructions

To capture the video (filesize: 19MB), using the free "QuickTime Player" application:

	/*
	Basically what we are going to do is use and profit from NSURLRequests being conformant to NSCoding,
	and a little known API from NSURLProtocol which allows us attach info to requests.
	*/

	//Step 0: For the purpose of this gist, we'll already have a background session setup and assume a bunch of stuff.
	NSURLSession *bgSession = [NSURLSession magicMethodWhichGivesMeTheAlreadySetupSession]; //Geeez, Methods are long in Obj-C.

	//IMPORTANT: Request must be mutable in order for this to work. Got an immutable one. Make a copy. Can't? Well, Make it so!.
	//Step 1: Setup your basic request.

	let color = "blue"
	let num = 42

	localized("Colorless green ideas sleep furiously.")
	localized("Colorless \(color) ideas sleep furiously.")
	localized("\(num.formatted("%05d")) colorless green ideas sleep furiously.")

	import Foundation

	struct Term {
	let offset: Int
	let value: String
	}

	let term = Term(offset: 0, value: "")
	let output = generateEquatable(term)
	print(output)
