If the \c{<config-arg>} list contains the \c{config.install.root} variable
that applies to the \c{bpkg.configure.create} step, then in addition to
-building and running tests, the \c{bbot} worker will also test installing and
-uninstalling each package. Furthermore, if the package contains the \c{tests}
-subdirectory that is a subproject, then the worker will additionally build and
-run tests against the installation.
+building and possibly running tests, the \c{bbot} worker will also test
+installing and uninstalling each package. Furthermore, if the package contains
+subprojects that support the test operation, then the worker will additionally
+build such subprojects against the installation and run their tests.
Two types of installations can be tested: \i{system} and \i{private}. A system
installation uses a well-known location, such as \c{/usr} or \c{/usr/local},
