Get tests running about swift

[zhuowei]

Some tests can run now, but the standard test framework spawns a subprocess to run tests in parallel, so need to implement subprocess.

Some tests can run now

Can you explain how you're running tests? I'd like to work on getting tests to pass on this fork.

Oh, I see 0079df115500e834d7c6fb40276a2f010ffee2d7. I'll try using that--thanks!

Here are my results for swift-linux-x86_64/test-android-armv7: https://gist.github.com/modocache/cf888cf869f06207c262

tl;dr:

  Expected Passes    : 1455
  Expected Failures  : 67
  Unsupported Tests  : 648
  Unexpected Passes  : 1
  Unexpected Failures: 23

Here are my results for swift-linux-x86_64/test-linux-x86_64:

Testing Time: 70.10s
  Expected Passes    : 1535
  Expected Failures  : 76
  Unsupported Tests  : 583

1 warning(s) in tests.

I'll look into (a) fixing the failures on swift-linux-x86_64/test-android-armv7, and (b) reducing the number of unsupported tests for that test suite.

Tests are running pretty well. There are currently less than 10 failures across the test and validation-test suites.

To make it easier to run tests, I moved the test runner to the main Swift repository and added documentation on how to use it: 5b4e565

We can track test failures in separate issues, but the overall problem of running tests has been addressed, so I'll close this issue.

That's awesome! thank you so much.

No, you're awesome! 👍 Thanks for the initial work in 0079df1, it got me 99% of the way there.
