The goal +is to make using rust in meson more pleasant, while still remaining mesonic, +this means that it attempts to make rust work more like meson, rather than +meson work more like rust. + +## Functions + +### test(name: string, target: library | executable, dependencies: []Dependency) + +This function creates a new rust unittest target from an existing rust based +target, which may be a library or executable. It does this by copying the +sources and arguments passed to the original target and adding the `--test` +argument to the compilation, then creates a new test target which calls that +executable, using the rust test protocol. + +This accepts all of the keyword arguments as the +[`test`](Reference-manual.md#test) function except `protocol`, it will set +that automatically. + +Additional, test only dependencies may be passed via the dependencies +argument. |
