Good question. I suppose it depends a bit on the test, but, yeah, I'd
stay away from a standalone repo we can ignore. We'll have to see how
complex testing plasma really is. In theory we only need to
startplasma in xephyr or something, all the relevant bits and bobs are
kind of already part of the CI dependencies anyway. In particular kwin
and kded come to mind. All that being said, tests that only test a
single applet probably can just run plasmawindowed and call it a day.
