[Opensim-dev] Restructuring test directories

[Alan M Webb]

Having followed this conversation thus far, and knowing zero about nunit 
(other than the fact it didn't work after I upgraded to Fedora 9):

Until such time as we have an application in which a bug is genuinely 
considered to be unexpected, as opposed to business-as-usal, the test 
cases rally should be a part of the "distribution".
Which raises the question: Do we have a "distribution" in the sense of a 
consistently formed binary distribution that is distinct from the 
development tree?

Where test cases go should might their nature: we should have (eventually 
anyway) unit, functional, compliance, regression, performance, and system 
tests. Others?
Personally, I don't think *where* the test case source goes makes much 
difference to anything, both approaches have merits.

+1 to binaries WITOUT tests included
+1 to binaries WITH tests included.
+1 to tests kept with the code to which they relate
+1 to tests kept in a separate testing subtree.

But most of all:

+1 to tests
AND
+2 to using them.

Best regards
Alan

Not to mention the additional and superfluous refernces to the test 
framework. You do not want those to be part of your distribution.

-1 on merging them, +1 on keeping them close to each others.
