The unicode tests would often fail when tested in parallel because
we were not exporting to unique file names. From what I understand,
a variant similar to the following race condition occurred:
1. Thread A exports to file blah.pdf.
2. Thread B exports to file blah.pdf.
3. Thread A confirms file blah.pdf exists.
4. Thread A deletes exported file blah.pdf to clean up.
5. Thread B fails to find file blah.pdf and reports a failure.
The debug mode is set with the environment LYX_DEBUG_LATEX
$ export LYX_DEBUG_LATEX=1
The downside: From time to time the need to remove the superfluous dirs
$ cd build-dir
$ find autotests/out-home -name AbC_\* | xargs rm -rf
The sax-parser is choking on tags like 'section*' or 'Braille (default)'.
Also setting parameters like 'height=12pt' are not valid.
The added filter tries to 'correct' the input for the sax parser.
E.g. 'Braille (default)' ==> 'Braille__default_', 'section*' ==> 'section_'
and 'height =12pt' ==> 'height="12pt"'

We are trying to check if the resulting file after lyx2lyx
is compilable, we have to ensure that copying the original file
to the test directory does not mangle use_non_tex_fonts-entry.
These file don't contain the \\origin tag. So the possibly included
files with relative path would not be found. The compilation to
the default pdf would then anyway fail.
If, after the 10th iteration, the exported lyx16x file still
differs from the one in the previous iteration, the test
is marked as failing, even if still loadable.
New file: ignoreLatexErrorsTests
The sublabels in this list of export-testnames specify which error
messages should be ignored.
For each sublabel (for example "xxx") the lyx-command line is expanded with
"--ignore-error-message xxx"
Since the stop condition is that the last two consecutive created
files are identical, we do not need to check the last file.
Also checking for load of the created files is not needed, because
exporting the previous file implicitly loads too.
Exporting to some previous lyx format:
Inside the loop
Stop at export with errors/warnings
Stop if exported file not loadable
Stop if exported file identical to previous exported file (OK case)
This is done through creating MD5SUM
We test here, if any \end_{somethig} matches \begin_{something}.
Exeptions are \end_index and \end_branch ATM, they should
match \index and \branch respectively.
Also added new testfile.
This should prevent possible errors for tests running in parallel.
We now also check for created export file.
