Comment (by simonsouth):
You're right, it's a missing dependency: There's nothing that makes the
`unittests` target dependent on these files, so they are not built when
`jam -q unittests` is run. Building them as individual targets, e.g. `jam
-q AppRunTestApp3a`, works fine.
Adding to [http://cgit.haiku-
os.org/haiku/tree/src/tests/kits/app/bapplication/testapps/Jamfile?id=hrev49746#n35
the CopyBAppTestApp rule] the line
{{{
Depends unittests : $(target) ;
}}}
makes things work, but is a poor solution since it embeds knowledge about
the build system deep into the test cases.
What do you think of the attached patch? It
* Adds a new rule, `UnitTestDependency`, to `TestRules`; and
* Uses it in `testapps/Jamfile` to make the `unittests` target depend on
the copied files.
