7 91 Andrei Tatarnikov
MicroTESK is a set of Java-based utilities that are run from the command line. It can be used on *_Windows_*, *_Linux_* and *_OS X_* machines that have *_JDK 1.7 or later_* installed. To build MicroTESK from source code or to build generated Java models, *_Apache Ant version 1.8_ or later* is required. To generate test data based on constraints, MicroTESK needs *_Z3_* or *_CVC4_* that can work under the corresponding operating system.

h3. Installation Steps
10 1 Andrei Tatarnikov
11 64 Andrei Tatarnikov
# Download from http://forge.ispras.ru/projects/microtesk/files and unpack the MicroTESK installation package (the @.tar.gz@ file, latest release) to your computer. The folder to which it was unpacked will be further referred to as the installation directory (@<installation dir>@).
12 53 Andrei Tatarnikov
# [Not required for MicroTESK 2.1 beta] Download and install constraint solver tools to the @<installation dir>/tools@ directory (see the *Installing Constraint Solvers* section).
13 46 Andrei Tatarnikov
# Declare the *MICROTESK_HOME* environment variable and set its value to the path to the installation directory (see the *Setting Environment Variables* section).
14 60 Andrei Tatarnikov
# Set the @<installation dir>/bin@ as the working directory (add the path to the @PATH@ environment variable) to be able to run MicroTESK utilities from any path.
15 33 Alexander Kamkin
# Now you can run the @compile.sh@ (or @.bat@) script to create a microprocessor model and the @generate.sh@ (or @.bat@) script to generate test for this model.

h4. _Linux and OS X_
30 48 Andrei Tatarnikov
31 1 Andrei Tatarnikov
Add the command below to the @~.bash_profile@ file (Linux) or the @~/.profile@ file (OS X):
32 61 Andrei Tatarnikov
<pre>export MICROTESK_HOME=<installation dir></pre> To start editing the file, type @vi ~/.bash_profile@ (or @vi ~/.profile@). Changes will be applied after restarting the command-line terminal or reboot. You can also execute the command in your command-line terminal to make temporary changes.

h3. Installing Constraint Solvers
35
36 70 Andrei Tatarnikov
To generate test data based on constraints, MicroTESK requires external constraint solvers. The current version supports the "Z3":https://github.com/z3prover and "CVC4":http://cvc4.cs.nyu.edu constraint solvers. Constraint executables should be downloaded and placed to the @<installation dir>/tools@ directory.

* Windows users should download Z3 (32 or 64-bit version) from the following page: http://z3.codeplex.com/releases and unpack the archive to the @<installation dir>/tools/z3/windows@ directory. Note: the executable file path is @<windows>/z3/bin/z3.exe@.
41 1 Andrei Tatarnikov
42 68 Andrei Tatarnikov

*_Installing CVC4_*
51 70 Andrei Tatarnikov
52 72 Andrei Tatarnikov
* Windows users should download the latest version of CVC4 binary from http://cvc4.cs.nyu.edu/builds/win32-opt/ and save it to the @<installation dir>/tools/cvc4/windows@ directory as @cvc4.exe@.
53 70 Andrei Tatarnikov
54 79 Andrei Tatarnikov
* Linux users download the latest version of CVC4 binary from http://cvc4.cs.nyu.edu/builds/i386-linux-opt/unstable/ (32-bit version) or http://cvc4.cs.nyu.edu/builds/x86_64-linux-opt/unstable/ (64-bit version) and save it to the @<installation dir>/tools/cvc4/unix@ directory as @cvc4@.
55 70 Andrei Tatarnikov
56 77 Andrei Tatarnikov
* OS X users should download the latest version of CVC4 distribution package from http://cvc4.cs.nyu.edu/builds/macos/ and install it.
57 76 Andrei Tatarnikov
The CVC4 binary should be copied to @<installation dir>/tools/cvc4/osx@ as @cvc4@ or linked to this file name via a symbolic link.

h3. Running MicroTESK
72 26 Andrei Tatarnikov
73 89 Alexander Kamkin
To generate a Java model of a microprocessor from its nML specification, a user needs to run the @compile.sh@ script (Unix, Linux, OS X) or the @compile.bat@ script (Windows). For example, the following command generates a model for the miniMIPS specification:
74 1 Andrei Tatarnikov
75 26 Andrei Tatarnikov
<pre>
76 67 Andrei Tatarnikov
sh bin/compile.sh arch/minimips/model/minimips.nml
77 27 Andrei Tatarnikov
</pre>
78 1 Andrei Tatarnikov
79 57 Andrei Tatarnikov
_NOTE: Models for all demo specifications are already built and included in the MicroTESK distribution package. So a user can start working with MicroTESK from generating test programs for these models._
80 1 Andrei Tatarnikov
81 89 Alexander Kamkin
To generate a test program, a user needs to use the @generate.sh@ script (Unix, Linux, OS X) or the @generate.bat@ script (Windows). The scripts require the following parameters: 
82 57 Andrei Tatarnikov
83
#  _model name_;
84 90 Andrei Tatarnikov
# _test template file_.
85 57 Andrei Tatarnikov
86 87 Andrei Tatarnikov
For example, the command below runs the @euclid.rb@ test template for the miniMIPS model generated by the command from the previous example and saves the generated test program to an assembler file. The file name is based on values of the @--code-file-prefix@ and @--code-file-extension@ options.
87 57 Andrei Tatarnikov
88 27 Andrei Tatarnikov
<pre>
89 84 Andrei Tatarnikov
sh bin/generate.sh minimips arch/minimips/templates/euclid.rb
90 26 Andrei Tatarnikov
</pre>
91 80 Andrei Tatarnikov
92
To specify whether "Z3":https://github.com/z3prover or "CVC4":http://cvc4.cs.nyu.edu should be used to solve constraints, a user needs to specify the @-s@ or @--solver@ command-line option as @z3@ or @cvc4@ respectively. By default, Z3 will be used. Here is an example:
93
94
<pre>
95
sh bin/generate.sh -s cvc4 minimips arch/minimips/templates/constraint.rb
96
</pre>
