In addition to reporting on tests, vamp-plugin-tester runs some tests

that are intended to provoke the plugin into unexpected behaviour such

as memory errors.  If vamp-plugin-tester crashes during a test, this


  		




  51
  
  
    
may be why.  Also, if you have access to a memory checker utility such


  		




  52
  
  
    
as valgrind, you are advised to run vamp-plugin-tester under it so as


  		




  53
  
  
    
to be informed of any memory errors that do not happen to cause


  		




  54
  
  
    
crashes.
