This proposal is now implemented, without the --without-* options (who
needs to exclude some tests when he creates a testdir?).
2010-03-28 Bruno Haible <address@hidden>
gnulib-tool: Add support for special categories of tests.
* gnulib-tool: New options --with-c++-tests, --with-longrunning-tests,
--with-privileged-tests, --with-unportable-tests, --with-all-tests.
(func_usage): Document them.
(inc_cxx_tests, inc_longrunning_tests, inc_privileged_tests,
inc_unportable_tests, inc_all_tests): New variables.
(func_acceptable): Consider these variables.
(func_modules_transitive_closure): Make it work when the 'Status' field
consists of multiple words.
(func_import): Store and restore the values of inc_cxx_tests,
inc_longrunning_tests, inc_privileged_tests, inc_unportable_tests,
inc_all_tests in gnulib-comp.m4.
(func_create_testdir): Set inc_all_tests to true.
* doc/gnulib.texi (Extra tests modules): New section.
Suggested by Jim Meyering.

+ Test modules can be marked with some special status attributes. When a
+ test module has such an attribute, @code{gnulib-tool --import} will not
+ include it by default.
+
+ The supported status attributes are:
+
+ @table @code
+ @item c++-test
+ Indicates that the test is testing C++ interoperability. Such a test is
+ useful in a C++ or mixed C/C++ package, but is useless in a C package.
+
+ @item longrunning-test
+ Indicates that the test takes a long time to compile or execute (more
+ than five minutes or so). Such a test is better avoided in a release
+ that is made for the general public.
+
+ @item privileged-test
+ Indicates that the test will request special privileges, for example,
+ ask for the superuser password. Such a test may hang when run
+ non-interactively and is therefore better avoided in a release that is
+ made for the general public.
+
+ @item unportable-test
+ Indicates that the test is known to fail on some systems, and that
+ there is no workaround about it. Such a test is better avoided in a
+ release that is made for the general public.
+ @end table
+
+ @code{gnulib-tool --import} will not include tests marked with these
+ attributes by default. When @code{gnulib-tool} is invoked with one
+ of the options @code{--with-c++-tests}, @code{--with-longrunning-tests},
+ @code{--with-privileged-tests}, @code{--with-unportable-tests}, it
+ will include tests despite the corresponding special status attribute.
+ When @code{gnulib-tool} receives the option @code{--with-all-tests},
+ it will include all tests regardless of their status attributes.
+
+ @code{gnulib-tool --create-testdir} and
+ @code{gnulib-tool --create-megatestdir} always include all tests
+ regardless of their status attributes.
+
+ In order to mark a module with a status attribute, you need to add it
+ to the module description, like this:
+
+ @example
+ Status:
+ longrunning-test
+ @end example
+
