Retaining the "TESTS=foo*.test" thing without GNU make-specific
measures
is tricky. It requires to shell-expand $(TESTS), before we even start
using either of $(TESTS) or $(TEST_LOGS). IIUC that means we have to
introduce yet another restart of 'make'. :-/
Do you see another way?
Actually I'm not even sure this is the right approach: after all there
is nothing that requires the contents of TESTS to be actual files, is
there? Maybe they are just .PHONY and just the name is the test, or
the files are generated, in which case globbing will not work.
Maybe it should not be file globbing, but some kind of filtering
(maybe case/esac-based) on the whole list of available TESTS. I like
to be able to run "make check TESTS='*foo*'" and have all the tests
that have "foo" in it, whatever the directory it's in. File-based
globbing won't do.
But I agree I see no means to avoid another invocation of make :(
