For myself, I would prefer removing references to unit tests, rather than focusing more on unit/integration test terminology.
Its a bit of a misnomer to refer to them as unit/integration tests. The mechanism allows whitebox / blackbox testing and the user can put unit or integration tests in either location.

Agree on Ed's argument. Mentioning unit tests is still confusing. “What does it mean by binary unit tests?”

This seems odd so I would want us to confirm it and whether it is expected behavior updating documenation

@weihanglo I understand that epage should mean to remove unit tests from the option description. Would you take a look? |
