In this case, + it is best to use `verbose: true` *(since 0.62.0)* and, if supported + by the external harness, `protocol: 'tap'` *(since 0.50.0)*. This will + ensure that Meson logs each subtest as it runs, instead of including + the whole log at the end of the run. + Defined tests can be run in a backend-agnostic way by calling `meson test` inside the build dir, or by using backend-specific commands, such as `ninja test` or `msbuild RUN_TESTS.vcxproj`. |
