In order to minimize the amount of breakage, while at the same time making it easier to make backward incompatible changes needed to continue turning libmutter into a capable Wayland compositor, make the libmutter and friends (libmutter-clutter, libmutter-cogl*) parallel installable by adding a version number to the name. This changes various filenames, for example what previously was libmutter.so is now libmutter-0.so (assuming the version for now is 0), and libmutter-clutter-1.0.so is now libmutter-clutter-0.so. The pkg-config filenames and GObject introspection has been renamed to reflect this as well. This enables a downstream compositor rely on a specific version of the libmutter API, while gracefully handling API/ABI changes by having to update to the new version at their own pace. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777317 |

Outline of test categories:
The conform/ tests should be non-interactive unit-tests that verify a single
feature is behaving as documented. Use the GLib and Clutter test API and macros
to write the test units. The conformance test suites are meant to be used with
continuous integration builds.
The performance/ tests are performance tests, both focused tests testing single
metrics and larger tests. These tests are used to report one or more
performance markers for the build of Clutter. Each performance marker is picked
up from the standard output of running the tests from strings having the form
"\n@ marker-name: 42.23" where 'marker-name' and '42.23' are the key/value pairs
of a single metric. Each test can provide multiple key/value pairs. Note that
if framerate is the feedback metric the test should forcibly enable FPS
debugging itself. The file test-common.h contains utility function helping to
do fps reporting.
The interactive/ tests are any tests whose status can not be determined without
a user looking at some visual output, or providing some manual input etc. This
covers most of the original Clutter tests. Ideally some of these tests will be
migrated into the conform/ directory.
The accessibility/ tests are tests created to test the accessibility support of
clutter, testing some of the atk interfaces.
Other notes:
• All tests should ideally include a detailed description in the source
explaining exactly what the test is for, how the test was designed to work,
and possibly a rationale for the approach taken for testing. Tests for specific
bugs should reference the bug report URL or number.
• When running tests under Valgrind, you should follow the instructions
available here:
https://wiki.gnome.org/Valgrind
and also use the suppression file available in the Git repository.
