Unit Tests
----------
We have plenty of unit tests. Run them with `make check` or
`meson -C "$BUILD_DIR" test`.
Note that some files in the source tree are both generated and commited
to git. That means, certain changes to the code also affect these generated
files. The unit test fail in that case, to indicate that the generated
files no longer match what is commited to git.
You can also automatically regenerate the files by running `NM_TEST_REGENERATE=1 make check`.
Note that test-client requires working translation.
See the [comment](https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/blob/eee4332e8facfa5ff5940fa1655575d76ca143ea/src/tests/client/test-client.py#L19)
for how to configure it.
