We've removed the "list all properties in the project" feature on 
purpose, because we saw no good use case for it. Apologies to you guys 
who actually relied on it.

The "run all tests" use case is covered, once we've implemented action 
targets, like "make tests" in qmake projects (QBS-262).

Until then we could

1) bring back the removed feature.

2) extend the project object with information about the products. This 
would be nice anyways and wouldn't be a temporary hack.

One could write a project information file with all containing products 
or properties or whatever like this:

Transformer {
     Artifact { fileName: "projectinfo.txt"; fileTags: ["stuff"] }
     prepare: {
         var cmd = new JavaScriptCommand();
         cmd.description = "creating stuff";
         cmd.sourceCode = function() {
             var f = new TextFile(output.fileName, TextFile.WriteOnly);
             f.write(JSON.stringify(project));
             f.close();
         }
         return [cmd];
     }
}

The project object doesn't hold much valuable information at the moment 
but you get the idea. What do you think?
