[PATCH 0/3] kunit: support running subsets of test suites from

From: Daniel Latypov
Date: Wed Feb 03 2021 - 18:42:30 EST


When using `kunit.py run` to run tests, users must populate a
`kunitconfig` file to select the options the tests are hidden behind and
all their dependencies.

The patch [1] to allow specifying a path to kunitconfig promises to make
this nicer as we can have checked in files corresponding to different
sets of tests.

But it's still annoying
1) when trying to run a subet of tests
2) when you want to run tests that don't have such a pre-existing
kunitconfig and selecting all the necessary options is tricky.

This patch series aims to alleviate both:
1) `kunit.py run 'my-suite-*'`
I.e. use my current kunitconfig, but just run suites that match this glob
2) `kunit.py run --alltests 'my-suite-*'`
I.e. use allyesconfig so I don't have to worry about writing a
kunitconfig at all (this is a bit overkill, but it works!)

See the first commit message for more details and discussion about
future work.

This patch series also includes a bugfix for a latent bug that can't be
triggered right now but has worse consequences as a result of the
changes needed to plumb in this suite name glob.
