It's not a new option, it's been provided by ECM for over a year and of course KDE4_BUILD_TESTS was floating around before that.</pre>

<pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">right, but it was a deliberate decision to not honor KDE4_BUILD_TESTS in kde-workspace/kwin. So I'm just wondering what's the usecase or better put the advantage for kwin development to have a build option to disable testing. Personally I don't see any. If your a developer you to run the tests, thus it should be enabled. If you are a distro you want to run the tests as part of your package building process. So who would benefit from such a build option?</pre>

To which one? There are multiple autotests subdirectories. Also the XCB::ICCCM dependency is not in the tests but in the root CMakeLists.txt and I like it that way because all XCB dependencies are defined at one place.
> So there is a benefit
The benefit has to be weight against the costs. I see an additional cost on maintenance because we have to remember to add the build dependency whenever a new subdirectory gets tests or autotests. I see here a high breakage risk which I do not want to bear (been there with broken build options - remember OpenGL build option?). If this is really just a build option to suit the needs of one distribution I think the general rule of no distro-specific patches has to apply.
> please follow the KF5 standardized way of doing things
This is not a KF5 library, thus any rules for KF5 do not apply to KWin. You might notice that we also don't have a src/ subdirectory.</pre>

<pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">Well the zero maintenance option is to leave everything where it is making the test-specific stuff conditional on BUILD_TESTING. I am really having trouble understanding why doing this is so offensive, given that it has zero impact on people that don't use it and having such an option is a fairly common thing.</pre>
