[Nix-dev] tests with meta section

[Joachim Schiele]

hi,

wouldn't it be helpful if the unit tests in release.nix, like these:

  # Run the tests for each platform.  You can run a test by doing
  # e.g. ‘nix-build -A tests.login.x86_64-linux’, or equivalently,
  # ‘nix-build tests/login.nix -A result’.
  tests.avahi = callTest tests/avahi.nix {};
  tests.bittorrent = callTest tests/bittorrent.nix {};
  tests.blivet = callTest tests/blivet.nix {};
  tests.cadvisor = hydraJob (import tests/cadvisor.nix { system =
"x86_64-linux"; });
  tests.chromium = callTest tests/chromium.nix {};
  ...

would also contain a meta section with maintainer, so if a tests fails
on hydra, i get an email?

regards,
joachim
