[OE-core] [PATCH 0/4] RFC: ptest for danny

[Björn Stenberg]

Hi all.

Here is an update of the "ptest" concept I introduced a few months back.
The idea is to create a new package group called -ptest which contains the
test suites included with many source packages, compiled to run on
target.

A new package, ptest-runnner, contains a simple shell script to find and
run all installed ptests.

Making ptest package recipes present a number of challenges. First, the
task of building and running the tests have to be split in two. Then, the
test files must be installed in the file system in a sane way.

I have included recipe patches for glib-2.0 and dbus here. They solve the
building and running relatively cleanly but the install bit is still a
rather kludgy list of cp and sed lines. I'm working on a more generic
"make ptest-install" solution.

These patches are against the "danny" branch.

Björn Stenberg (4):
  Add a new distro feature "ptest"
  New recipe: ptest-runner
  Add ptest for glib-2.0.
  Add ptest for dbus.
