++ This directory contains autotests which can be applied over any Qt5 module.
++
++ The tests are separated into two categories, "prebuild" and "postbuild".
++ Prebuild tests are run before Qt is built, and generally consist of static
++ code checks (e.g. coding style or license header checks).
++ Postbuild tests are run after Qt is built, and may perform tests on the
++ Qt binaries themselves (e.g. binary compatibility tests).
++
++ The autotests must abide by the following conventions:
++
++ - tests must be executable by `make check' and should respect the
++ TESTRUNNER and TESTARGS variables where possible.
++
++ - tests may read the path to the current module's source/build tree
++ from the QT_MODULE_TO_TEST environment variable (note: shadow builds
++ are currently not supported).
++
++ - prebuild tests must not use any Qt libraries (e.g. they may be shell
++ or perl scripts, but may not be QTestLib C++ tests). They may use
++ qmake (in which case they should do CONFIG-=qt to avoid some warnings).
++
++ - prebuild tests should use 'git ls-files' to determine the list of
++ source files in the tested module.
++
++ - postbuild tests may use QTestLib and any other Qt libraries from
++ qtbase. Libraries from other qt gitmodules are not guaranteed to
++ be present.
