testing: skip certain tests by listing them in CLIENT_TEST_SKIP
The only way that I found not to execute a test was not to register
it in CPPUnit. FilterTest() does this by replacing a valid test
or test group with a dummy one, SkipTest, which just prints the
test name and that it is skipped.
Registering tests has to be intercepted at multiple levels:
- CPPUNIT_TEST in test suites
- ADD_TEST in ClientTest
- addTest in ClientTest
Not currently intercepted are complete test suites (CPPUNIT_TEST_SUITE).
The main purpose of this patch is to avoid running the time consuming
suspend and interrupt tests, but this feature might also be useful for
other tests, which is why it was implemented in a more general way.
