litmus comprises of a set of test suites as separate executables: each program takes a URL on the command-line, optionally followed by username and password. To run all the suites from a built litmus tree, use
$ make URL=http://dav.example.com/path/ check
Where http://dav.example.com/path/ is a DAV-enabled collection. litmus must be able to create a new collection called 'litmus' at that location. The Makefile variable 'CREDS' can also be defined to be a username/password separated by strings. e.g. if you have a user 'jim' defined with password '2518', use:
$ make URL=http://dav.example.com/path/ CREDS="jim 2518" check
To aid debugging, litmus adds a header `X-Litmus-One' to every request made. After running a test suite, the file 'debug.log' includes a full neon debugging trace (unless neon or litmus was configured without debugging enabled!).
To use after installation is complete ('make install'), run the 'litmus' script, passing in a URL, optionally followed by the username/password. For instance:
$ litmus http://dav.example.com/path/
or
$ litmus http://dav.example.com/path/ jim 2518
