Hi,

I have a few questions regarding this file:

1) Is it only used on Windows?
2) Why does it call functions from all modules? Isn't importing them enough?
3) Couldn't it be replaced altogether with the testing scheme used on POSIX?

Regards,
Alex

It's arguably desirable to have everything tested as one executable on Windows, because that way we can catch circular dependencies. With the scheme that's used on Posix, we can't do that very well. The main catch is that we've sometimes had to fix circular dependencies which were caused by unit tests rather than normal code.
