[lttng-dev] [RFC/PATCH 0/3] babeltrace: test harness improvements + new tests

[Nathan Lynch]

This is working toward moving from popt to GLib for command-line
parsing.  I want to add some tests for at least some of the converter
command-line options in order to prevent regressions.

I found it somewhat tedious to add even simple test scripts, so I
investigated alternatives to doing Autoconf variable substitution, and
this is what I came up with.  I think it makes adding a test script
quite a bit easier.  It also makes the test harness more flexible at
runtime, which is valuable when transferring a cross-compiled test
suite to a target system for execution there.

I've included the new tests I've written so far in patch #3.

Nathan Lynch (3):
  babeltrace: use AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT for tests
  babeltrace: drop configure-time substitutions in test scripts
  babeltrace: add simple tests for converter command line options
