The configuration time suffers mostly on checking, which of the export tests
is to be reverted.
1.) There is a new configuration flag now, "LYX_ENABLE_EXOPRT_TESTS.
If not set (default) no export tests are created.
2.) If set, then the optimization halves the time needed for creation of tests.
The effect on my side:
a.) Until now the time was: ~ 26 seconds
b.) The optimized time is now: ~ 16 seconds
c.) With not enabled export tests: ~ 5 seconds
In collaboration with Scott Kostyshak:
With Qt 4 we could use Q_WS_X11, defined by FindQt4.cmake. In Qt 5,
there is no FindQt5.cmake. Instead we now define our own variable,
QT_USES_X11 by using class QX11Info available only on X11.
(http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/QX11Info.html)
The main consequence of this improved support is that now the keytests
can be run (ctest -R "keytest") when LyX is compiled with Qt 5.
Before, with Qt 5 we did not know if X11 was available, which is
needed by xvkbd, so the tests were not enabled. Note, however, that
many tests fail with Qt version 5.2.1 because there was a change in
the event handling mechanism in Qt that causes xvkbd to be unable to
pass capital letters (so case sensitive greps in the tests fail). This
needs to be investigated and reported.
Define new policy of what export formats to check.

Citing Scott:
In our current set up, we are currently testing XeTeX and LuaTeX
either with system fonts or with TeX fonts but never both. We should
test with both in my opinion. We will have to ignore/invert many tests
but it still seems useful. For example Günter fixed babel-greek so
that it works now with TeX fonts; and Jürgen found some errors in LyX
that were causing some of the English docs to fail with system fonts.
Currently we only test greek documents with system fonts and we only
test English documents with TeX fonts.
This change adds the missing test-cases.
In successful cooperation with Scott Kostyshak.
We provide many lyx-documents which are not compilable with luatex or xetex.
But some of them compile, if we change the font use to non_tex_fonts.
Since this would change the appropriate source, we have to convert
it first into a save location. To make it there compilable,
we have to convert also all file references.

The whole job is done with a perl script.
The tests are now more robust if ctest uses '-j' (number of threads) parameter.
a.) keytests are running in sequence and in one thread only, no other thread running
b.) tex2lyx tests are locking in respect to each other
c.) Test gets one or more labels, so that we can select
ctest -L url
to run tests labeled url
d.) New macro settestlabel() to add labels to a test
Files, which contain names of ctest-tests controling
whether they should be inverted, or ignored.
We have two such files ATM: revertedTests + ignoredTests
These tests load the .lyx files to see if there are
any parsing errors or other LyX errors/warnings. The
tests fail if LyX writes a line to STDERR that does not
match any of the regexes stored in filterCheckWarnings.
Thanks to Kornel for the CMake expertise and corrections.
This patch was written jointly with him.
a) test export/templates/ectaart_pdf5 removed, because
of incompatibility between ectart.cls and luatex.sty
b) renamed some tests to reflect their purpose
tex2lyx2lyx/roundtrip/ => tex2lyx/cmplyx/
# the tests are comparing files written by lyx (not by tex2lyx)
autotests/ => keytest/
# we are testing reactions of lyx to some key strokes
c) add tests for lyx2lyx. This is rather rudimental, in that it only
checks for created output, error codes and error output.
d) use correct environment variable to set up the userdir for testing
Some export test are known to fail. Checking them every time is cumbersome.
Now, the tests marked in file revertedTests will invert the success condition
and mark the test as INVERTED_SEE-README.ctest.
If some of the tests in revertedTests fails, this is good, and the testname
can be removed from it.
If no libraries are found, XVFBDLIBS is not initialized and the command "list(REMOVE_DUPLICATES XVFBDLIBS)" fails. So, initialize XVFBDLIBS beforehand.
The xhtml format is always tested, regardless of the default format.
Without this, if the default format is xhtml, CMake gives an error
when trying to add the xhtml test because it was already added.
Now all export tests can be run with:
ctest -R "export"
Only export tests for manuals can be run with:
ctest -R "export/doc"
And only export tests for examples can be run with:
ctest -R "export/examples"
Instead of 'autotests/export/doc/' export tests are prefixed
with 'export/doc/'. This has the advantage of the name better
reflecting the test (export tests are not autotests), but has a
disadvantage in that the old name gave a better idea of where the
export test scripts are located (in the autotests directory).
Many test are not running, but if changed the '-dbg xxx' to '-dbg any'
then all of sudden they pass ...
(The buffered output of lyx is often disrupted too early with 'kill -9',
so the expected data are not available for the appropriate test)
