SKID-7: Split the unit test execution by library #20

Open hark130 opened 5 months ago

hark130 commented 5 months ago

434 unit tests are starting to get a little unwieldy to run every time. It would be nice to be able to execute the unit tests by library using make. That way, I only have to run what I'm working on.

Maybe, some special rules to make check_sfl or make check_sfw. That might be difficult to implement and even more difficult to support. Maybe, the file comment blocks are enough. Maybe add a default comment on the pre-existing super secret make -C code dist/check_sfl_create_hard_link.bin command... but one that would build and run just test cases that match code/dist/check_sfl_*.bin.

Maybe, this isn't even a Makefile problem to solve. Maybe there's a way to wrap all these Check unit tests into some grand overarching structure like we've been doing on DCTHA for years. Python's unittest makes it real easy to "discover" test cases. Shouldn't there be something like that for Check?
