Hello All,

Just wondering if anyone may have a quick fix to our dilemma here.

I work for a company called HGS (Human Genome Sciences), we are in the
pharmaceutical business. Everything we do has to be tested and re-tested
to ensure we are providing the most accurate form of data. On top of that
everything is validated and regulated by FDA. What this means is every
application on a validated server has to be tested in a test environment
then installed into the production environment at which it has to be
re-tested.

While compiling R (Any version) you run configure, make test, and then make
install. After which you are done. I am wondering if there is a way we
can run the "make test" part again on what was just installed. If I
understand the process correctly when you initially run "make test" you are
testing R in the test area and not the install directory. Is it something
as simple as changing the BASEDIR in the makefile or is it a bit more
complicated.

Thanks in advance for your HELP!

Leslie
