Yet, it's the core developers who will likely be called in to answer

In subsequentcheck? If that should indeed be the case even then, we can make a
separate "make pythoncheck" target.

Now you are the one being academic here.  Stick to the topic please,
which is whether or not Python tests should be used to test core
functionality.  Nobody is talking about boost here.

I am talking about testing the _product_ here.

And I'm talking about what tools should be used to test what part of the
product.  I think you are at one level above us.  No wonder we are
talking past each other.

Yes, there is a difference between:

 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integration_testing
 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_testing

and both have their use, but are very different beasts. I think, if we dont mix
them up, we can have both, handle them differently and all be happy.

Best,

Bjoern
