Thank you for link, I'll investigate it.


The question concerned not really performance (but it also very
important) but approaches to verify ready compiler created with
lex/yacc pair or fully custom how it conform to customer's
requirements. Really technique to create testing environments,
testcases, what should be tested first etc.


I think this question to people with some experience in creating
_industrial_ translators/compilers.


Thank you.


Ruslan
