running tests for shared extensions, compiled out of php src tree

Hello, I think we should add some stuffs to be able to run the tests using a shared extension, outside the php source tree. Some changes are required in phpize and run-tests.php as well as in the Makefile. some quick thoughts: - Add the run-tests.php to the top level sources tree or - Install run-tests.php on make install - Test should be called using $(SAPI_CLI_PATH) $(top_src_dir)/run-tests.php $(top_src_dir)/tests/ or $(libdir)/tests/run-tests.php - A way to load the Ext, in the ini section? or let the authors load it again in FILE using dl? I would like to get some feedbacks and/or comments. And if it is possible or not to make these changes. That should help a lot QA processes for extensions and pecl extensions (ie running them from pear install foobar). pierre
