+Fragile tests
+-------------
+
+It is easy to write a fragile test that would fail spuriously if the tool being
+tested outputs a full path to the input file. For example, :program:`opt` by
+default outputs a ``ModuleID``:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ $ cat example.ll
+ define i32 @main() nounwind {
+ ret i32 0
+ }
+
+ $ opt -S /path/to/example.ll
+ ; ModuleID = '/path/to/example.ll'
+
+ define i32 @main() nounwind {
+ ret i32 0
+ }
+
+``ModuleID`` can unexpetedly match against ``CHECK`` lines. For example:
+
+.. code-block:: llvm
+
+ ; RUN: opt -S %s | FileCheck
+
+ define i32 @main() nounwind {
+ ; CHECK-NOT: load
+ ret i32 0
+ }
+
+This test will fail if placed into a ``download`` directory.
+
+To make your tests robust, always use ``opt ... < %s`` in the RUN line.
+:program:`opt` does not output a ``ModuleID`` when input comes from stdin.
