I fully agree with Timo.
We don't need to have useless files in tree.
Remember we recently deleted stuff from the main tree for the same reasons : space used and download time.

We do need tests, they are critical, but not in every reactos checkout.
I am for making tests a complete separated project, which would lower build times even more.
 
Kind regards,

Am I the only one against that?
Tests are tests, not reactos.
Why do I need to have another bazillion files in my source tree that I don't need or want?
I have ONE checkout of rostests, but a dozen checkouts of reactos. For amd64 work I even disabled build of a lot of stuff that was pointless. Now even more stuff spread thoughout the whole tree? Possibly even built by default?
Deleting a full reactos checkout is already slow enough. Also every commit to rostetsts is a possible build breaker and can cause massive rebuilds. Configure time will also increase.
I would rather prefer to make it even more modular, instead of mixing stuff even more.
