We rely on having the DISPLAY environment variable set, otherwise we
default to skipping all tests automatically. The TestEnvironment key
inside the installed test launcher keyfile replaces the whole
environment, instead of just adding to it like the TESTS_ENVIRONMENT
automake variable.
The TestEnvironment key allows us to control the environment used by the
gnome-desktop-testing-runner harness.
We use it to disable the diagnostic messages without having to tweak the
Exec line.

The current conformance test suite is suboptimal in many ways.
All tests are built into the same binary, which makes adding new tests,
builting tests, and running groups of tests much more awkward than it
needs to be. The first issue, especially, raises the bar of contribution
in a significant way, while the other two take their toll on the
maintainer. All of these changes were introduced back when we had both
Clutter and Cogl tests in tree, and because we were building the test
suite for every single change; since then, Cogl moved out of tree with
all its tests, and we build the conformance test suite only when running
the `check` make target.
This admittedly large-ish commit changes the way the conformance test
suite works, taking advantage of the changes in the GTest API and test
harness.
First of all, all tests are now built separately, using their own test
suite as defined by each separate file. All tests run under the TAP
harness provided by GTest and Automake, to gather a proper report using
the Test Anything Protocol without using the `gtester` harness and the
`gtester-report` script. We also use the Makefile rules provided by GLib
to vastly simplify the build environment for the conformance test suite.
On top of the changes for the build and harness, we also provide new API
for creating and running test suites for Clutter. The API is public,
because the test suite has to use it, but it's minimal and mostly
provides convenience wrappers around GTest that make writing test units
for Clutter easier.
This commit disables all tests in the conformance test suite, as well as
moving the data files outside of the tests/data directory; the next few
commits will re-establish the conformance test suite separately so we
can check that everything works in a reliable way.
• Use $(SED) and $(GREP) consistently
• Do not point to the template README.in
• Eliminate the '===' separator in the NEWS extractor
• List all download URIs for the tarballs
Update the release-message target to generate the full release
announcement out of the standard blurb and the NEWS file. We use
a pretty evil sed incantation, courtesy of Neil Roberts.
The check-news option in configure.ac conflicts with the idea of using a
buildbot to do a distcheck.
Since we're doing some validation on the state of the build during the
release-check phase we should add the NEWS file check there.

• Use addprefix instead of manually concatenating $(srcdir)
• Use AM_V_GEN instead of QUIET_GEN, to avoid inter-dependencies
• Do basic checks on GLIB_MKENUMS and GLIB_GENMARSHAL being defined
• Do checks on the required variables being defined
What happens now if you rename an enum inside a header:
• glib-mkenums generates the header file
• a comparison is made with the previous version of the heade is made
and no difference is found as you don't remove or create enums
• the compilation of the generated mkenums c file fails because it has
not been regenerated with the new, renamed, enum.
That's why the generated clutter-enum-types.c needs to depend on the
headers too.
Of course such scenario should not happen in stable releases as enums
are part of the API, but renaming enums happens in the development cycle
and create compilation errors (very annoying when doing git bissects for
instance).
The tests/accessibility, tests/micro-bench and the examples directory
in the coobook create a lot of non-installed binaries. Since we know who
they are, and we ignore them, we can auto-generate the ignore files as
well.
The rest of Clutter is covered by the main ignore file.
The AS_ALL_LINGUAS m4 macro allows configure-time generation of the
ALL_LINGUAS variable from the translations inside po/ instead of using
the LINGUAS file.
We should generate a ChangeLog for each minor version cycle, starting
from the Git import date (since before that we used ChangeLog-style
commit messages that don't really look good with the Git ones).
For this reason we can take Cairo's Makefile.am.changelog file and,
after tweaking it to fit our use case, let it generate the correct
ChangeLogs on dist.
With this, if one changes the underlying template files, we run
glib-mkenums again to generate updated glib_enum_[ch] files.
