Hello Siddhesh,
I'm curious about what you are trying to do to end up needing this
override. The old test makefiles have a very confusing UI and my guess
is that you are using input variables (TESTDIRS) with a target they
aren't meant for.
Instead of trying to fix this, I would strongly recommend moving away
from using the makefiles in test/ as those are deprecated and will be
removed eventually. We have a new makefile framework for running tests.
See doc/testing.md for details on how to use it. From a user perspective
it's far easier to use and much more powerful, as well as reasonably
well documented.

Hello,
The TESTDIRS override method of selecting a subset of tests currently
does not work because the TEST_SELECTION variable is not overridden
correctly; it needs the 'override' keyword to override its value.
Attached patch fixes this.
