As discussed in PR #142353, the current testsuite of the `clang` Python bindings has several issues: - It `libclang.so` cannot be loaded into `python` to run the testsuite, the whole `ninja check-all` aborts. - The result of running the testsuite isn't report like the `lit`-based tests, rendering them almost invisible. - The testsuite is disabled in a non-obvious way (`RUN_PYTHON_TESTS`) in `tests/CMakeLists.txt`, which again doesn't show up in the test results. All these issues can be avoided by integrating the Python bindings tests with `lit`, which is what this patch does: - The actual test lives in `clang/test/bindings/python/bindings.sh` and is run by `lit`. - The current `clang/bindings/python/tests` directory (minus the now-subperfluous `CMakeLists.txt`) is moved into the same directory. - The check if `libclang` is loadable (originally from PR #142353) is now handled via a new `lit` feature, `libclang-loadable`. - The various ways to disable the tests have been turned into `XFAIL`s as appropriate. This isn't complete and not completely tested yet. Tested on `sparc-sun-solaris2.11`, `sparcv9-sun-solaris2.11`, `i386-pc-solaris2.11`, `amd64-pc-solaris2.11`, `i686-pc-linux-gnu`, and `x86_64-pc-linux-gnu`.

C language Family Front-end
Welcome to Clang.
This is a compiler front-end for the C family of languages (C, C++ and Objective-C) which is built as part of the LLVM compiler infrastructure project.
Unlike many other compiler frontends, Clang is useful for a number of things beyond just compiling code: we intend for Clang to be host to a number of different source-level tools. One example of this is the Clang Static Analyzer.
If you're interested in more (including how to build Clang) it is best to read the relevant websites. Here are some pointers:
