[Qt-interest] Using QTestLib with qt-eclipse

Is it possible to use QTestLib(testlib) with the qt-eclipse plugin?

As far as I can see there are 2 possible solutions:

a: Create the tests within my current qt project in eclipse. This does 
not seem to work because I can't get qt to compile my test case, unless 
I add it to the main project, and in that case it complain about having 
2 main methods because the test framework generate/contain it's own main.

b: Create an other new qt project, put the test in this project and let 
it referrer my real project, but I can't seem to make this work. There 
is also the problem that the gui system don't know the testlib(Maybe a 
hint that it's not supported??) and the gui seems to be confused if I 
edit the project file by hand.

So is it possible, and how should I set it up?

I am using Qt Eclipse Integration for C++(The normal qt-eclipse plugin) 
together with Eclipse 3.5/cdt 6.0/qt 4.5.2
