### Running tests
You can run the whole testsuite with `make check`, or the tests for a specific component with `make libfoo-tests_RUN`.
Finer-grained filtering is also possible using the [--gtest_filter](https://google.github.io/googletest/advanced.html#running-a-subset-of-the-tests) command-line option, or the `GTEST_FILTER` environment variable, e.g. `GTEST_FILTER='ErrorTraceTest.*' make check`.
You can run the whole testsuite with `meson test` from the Meson build directory, or the tests for a specific component with `meson test nix-store-tests`.
A environment variables that Google Test accepts are also worth knowing:
1. [`GTEST_FILTER`](https://google.github.io/googletest/advanced.html#running-a-subset-of-the-tests)
This is used for finer-grained filtering of which tests to run.
2. [`GTEST_BRIEF`](https://google.github.io/googletest/advanced.html#suppressing-test-passes)
This is used to avoid logging passing tests.
Putting the two together, one might run
```bash
GTEST_BREIF=1 GTEST_FILTER='ErrorTraceTest.*' meson test nix-expr-tests -v
```
for short but comprensive output.

Like with the functional characterisation, `_NIX_TEST_ACCEPT=1` is also used.
For example:
```shell-session
$ _NIX_TEST_ACCEPT=1 make libstore-tests_RUN
$ _NIX_TEST_ACCEPT=1 meson test nix-store-tests -v
