On to the next matter. I can only run tests automatically

expand that set but it is always going to be an issue.
What's the proper way to handle a target I don't have
a simulator or target hardware for? Is there a standard
way to just go through the build sequence, not even
attempt to run anything and still report the results
in way that is meaningful?
Yes, you can build a cross-targeted compiler and should at least get sane
results for e.g. the compile tests, only the execute tests actually require a
real target.
I want those to compile also. Compile and link failures would
matter. Is there a way to make that meaningful?
You could always compile "int main() { abort (); }" and supply it as a
stand-in for a real simulator if there's a hole in the framework needs
plugging :-)
Or one that printed "*** EXIT code 0
