I think that what I need is different products with different cpp.defines.
Any way, right now i'm fighting hard to get the test project "loaded".
My first step is simply to get the generator running, i have several choices:
- 1 run qbs with a QProcess like TestBlackbox::runQbs()
- 2 use CommandLineFrontend
- 3 instantiate Project "manually" like TestApi::doBuildProject()
But i'm a bit overwhelmed by the amount of boiler plate i have to write!
Solution 1 seems the less-difficult of all...
Which profile should i use? How to retrieve the profile that has been
used for building Qbs itself? Does it even make sense to attempt to
retrieve it?
Surely, there is to be a way to get a ready-to-use profile for the
auto-tests, still searching tho...
I would highly appreciate if someone could shed some light on how to
get started.
