All tests in basics/ directory can now run and pass using 64-bit unix port with only a 16k heap (./run-tests --heapsize 16k). Tests in this directory should remain small so they can be used for ports with a small heap.
This directory contains tests for various functionality areas of MicroPython. To run all stable tests, run "run-tests" script in this directory. Tests of capabilities not supported on all platforms should be written to check for the capability being present. If it is not, the test should merely output 'SKIP' followed by the line terminator, and call sys.exit() to raise SystemExit, instead of attempting to test the missing capability. The testing framework (run-tests in this directory, test_main.c in qemu_arm) recognizes this as a skipped test. There are a few features for which this mechanism cannot be used to condition a test. The run-tests script uses small scripts in the feature_check directory to check whether each such feature is present, and skips the relevant tests if not. When creating new tests, anything that relies on float support should go in the float/ subdirectory. Anything that relies on import x, where x is not a built-in module, should go in the import/ subdirectory.
