meson: Reinstate parallel tests, add as-installed testing #532

Closed smcv closed 1 year ago

smcv commented 1 year ago

tests: Run each test in a new, empty directory

The test framework in libtest.sh expects this, and it's what the Autotools build system did.
tests: Run in parallel

Now that each test has its own working directory, hopefully we can run them in parallel.
tests: Add GNOME-style installed tests to Meson build

This was supported with Autotools, but missing from Meson until now.

Resolves: https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak-builder/issues/528

After doing an Autotools build + install with DESTDIR=.../autotools.inst and a Meson build + install with DESTDIR=.../meson.inst, both with a distro-style --prefix etc., and both enabling installed-tests:

$ diff -ru ~/tmp/build/flatpak-builder/*.inst
Binary files .../autotools.inst/usr/bin/flatpak-builder and .../meson.inst/usr/bin/flatpak-builder differ
Only in .../autotools.inst/usr/libexec: flatpak-builder-debugedit

Excellent, thank you for helping finish this up.

I'll make a 1.3.3 release so it can get packaged in Debian. Was there anything else you planned on doing first?
