Taking a step back, what are the reasons one might want to call either meson or ninja to run the test suite?
It appears that 'ninja test' is just a dumb shim to invoke 'meson test'. Given that using meson test directly looks much saner as you get the full range of functionality available.
I think it's the other way around, isn't it? That is, 'meson test' is a wrapper for 'ninja test' which adds a bunch of functionality on top. Note that this doesn't necessarily contradict your conclusion above, I'm just trying to be sure I understand how things work :) -- Andrea Bolognani / Red Hat / Virtualization
