That's a good test, but I wouldn't implement it in parttest.cpp. You're 
only testing Okular::TextAnnotation and Okular::Document, without GUI 
functionality required. You don't need a Okular::Part to create a 
Okular::Document. Just instantiate a Okular::Document standalone. And 
you don't need to have all typewriter tests in the same cpp file, better 
partition them according to which API you're targeting. Where do 
Okular::Annotation and Okular::Document do come from? They're from 
libOkular5Core.so. Then for example, annotationstest.cpp is about 
testing libOkular5Core. How about moving this test to 
annotationstest.cpp?

Guess if you don't involve GUI, this issue doesn't bother you at all. 
With GUI, you would probably would have to manually trigger the event 
loop (QApplication::processEvents) once.
