Typically the tests don't mix production and test code, since the purpose is to test the production code. Rather the tests are isolated in separate files that we relatively easily can build and install separately from the base package.
However, this is still early in the process. We have only processed a limited number of packages yet. We wanted to involve the community early to align our goals and directions.
