Alex: IMO yes.
Aleix: if the function from Alex R. is generic enough to be usable by non \
KDE-projects, I think it would be useful to have in ecm. Still, having two macros \
ecm_mark_as_test() and ecm_mark_as_autotest() would IMO not be good, since they sound \
quite similar but do different things. I'd prefer a more powerful function which does \
more than just wrap two calls.

But that's just my opinion, I leave it up to Stephen.

Having said that, the CMakeLists.txt in the various tests/ subdirs in KDE frameworks \
