Indeed, running runtest in an empty directory produces useless
(boilerplate) log and summary files. The testsuite has (nominally) been
located before the logs are opened, but DejaGnu currently has a big ball
of mud around actually finding and running the tests and does not check
for test files until after the logs have been opened.
Fixing this has been added to my TODO list, and extracting the "find
tests" stage from "find and run tests" will be needed for the planned
future native parallel testing support in any case. This will require
some fairly extensive overhauls in runtest.exp to separate that step and
effectively plan tests before running them instead of just running
them. I am also planning to expand tool handling at some point,
eventually allowing multiple --tool options to be given in a single run;
the effect will be equivalent to consecutive runtest invocations, but
may have better performance in parallel mode, since that would allow
testing of different tools to overlap.
Until then, I will carry this bug report as a feature request.

They aren't zero-length but they don't contain any useful information at

> errors and exit -- without creating these files.
Each of the warnings mentioned is a warning and not an error because,
while those indicate that something is probably wrong, there may be
testsuites out there using them. The lack of a testsuite/ directory
violates a long-documented requirement, but 1.6.3 is the first release
that actually checks that in order to resolve an ambiguity between
recursive and non-recursive Automake-generated Makefiles. (Several
DejaGnu tests in the Automake testsuite had to be patched to fix exactly
the misuse that triggers that warning, so there may be other testsuites
out there that do not properly use testsuite/. The ambiguity concerns
whether srcdir is "testsuite" itself or its parent.) The global config
file is part of site configuration, is expected to define remote
targets, and is actually optional if built-in defaults are sufficient,
as they usually are for the "unix" target. Lastly, while failure to
specify a tool produces a warning, it is a valid invocation of runtest.
The problem with bailing out in this case is that failing to specify a
tool is a valid (legacy, possibly deprecated) use: it means to run all
tests (for all tools) in the testsuite. Writing log and summary files
as if a tool named "testrun" was tested is the long-standing behavior in
this case and there is actually explicit code in lib/framework.exp to
support this. (That code may also mean that a tool literally named
"testrun" cannot actually be tested...)
Of the three warnings, the lack of a testsuite/ directory is the best
candidate to upgrade to a hard error since it has seemingly always been
a documented requirement, but all previous releases would silently
accept a testsuite not using that directory, so moving directly to
"ERROR: no testsuite/ directory found. Stop." is too much to do on a
point release.
Are the produced files empty? I will consider if there might be a good
way to detect a completely bogus run (example: no test scripts found at
all) and bail out early without creating logfiles, but this issue seems
to be a valid use case that is misfiring in your situation.

I've noticed that if I run 'runtest' in the wrong directory -- for
example in the source directory rather than the appropriate build
directory -- dejagnu will create files testrun.log and testrun.sum.
In this case these files are not actually useful.
And, runtest already emits some warnings about this:
prentzel. runtest
WARNING: testsuite is not in a testsuite/ directory.
WARNING: Couldn't find the global config file.
WARNING: No tool specified
I think it would be nicer if, when dejagnu notices that the environment
is unsuitable (like, no tool specified), then it should just print
errors and exit -- without creating these files.
thanks
