+- Incremental tests: only run tests that were updated [idea]
+
+ If a test is more than an executable, then tracking its "inputs" (so that we
+ know whether to run it) will be tricky. Such a test will most likely run via
+ testscript so can we capture inputs somehow? This seems to be related to the
+ question of what to attach testscripts to. Maybe we should make them (in
+ source) targets?
+
+ Will also need some kind of switch/override to run all tests (command line
+ config override seems like a natural choice).
