Lionel Sambuc 11be35a165 Importing NetBSD "Kyua" test framework
To do so, a few dependencies have been imported:

 * external/bsd/lutok
 * external/mit/lua
 * external/public-domain/sqlite
 * external/public-domain/xz

The Kyua framework is the new generation of ATF (Automated Test
Framework), it is composed of:

 * external/bsd/atf
 * external/bsd/kyua-atf-compat
 * external/bsd/kyua-cli
 * external/bsd/kyua-tester
 * tests

Kyua/ATF being written in C++, it depends on libstdc++ which is
provided by GCC. As this is not part of the sources, Kyua is only
compiled when the native GCC utils are installed.

To install Kyua do the following:

 * In a cross-build enviromnent, add the following to the build.sh
   commandline: -V MKBINUTILS=yes -V MKGCCCMDS=yes

WARNING:
  At this point the import is still experimental, and not supported
  on native builds (a.k.a make build).

Changes in version 0.1
======================
Experimental version released on February 19th, 2013.
This is the first public release of the kyua-testers package.
The goal of this first release is to adopt all the test case execution
code of kyua-cli 0.5 and ship it as a collection of independent tester
binaries. The kyua-cli package will rely on these binaries to run the
tests, which provides better modularity and simplicity to the
architecture of Kyua.
The code in this package is all C as opposed to the current C++ codebase
of kyua-cli, which means that the overall build times of Kyua are now
reduced.
