I'd really like to enable this. I think the blocker is mostly the amount of boilerplate needed to set up test directories. These required files are mostly boilerplate: - test/CMakeLists.txt (deps are meaningful, rest is boilerplate) - test/lit.site.cfg.py.in - test/lit.cfg.py - test/Unit/lit.site.cfg.py.in (this patch puts these under unittest/ instead, but either way) - test/Unit/lit.cfg.py Creating 10 more copies of each of those seems a little irresponsible, especially for tools that are "lightly maintained". So it's hard to say with a straight face that restructuring them all is a good idea, and maybe this motivated the original clang-tools-extra structure. But if those files were generated/eliminated somehow, restructuring would be very simple patches that didn't add more cruft to maintain. It's not obvious to me exactly how to do this (lit.* files affect both discovery and configuration) but I'll dig into this more tomorrow.
