Incidentally, I tried this for lttng-tools:

DISTRO_FEATURES_append = " ptest"
CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL_append = " ptest-runner lttng-tools-ptest"

lttng-tools' test script invokes the "prove" command, which does not get
installed:

root@qemuarm:/usr/lib/lttng-tools/ptest# ./run-ptest
[...]
./run.sh unit_tests
./run.sh: line 22: prove: command not found
Makefile:664: recipe for target 'installcheck-am' failed

The "prove" command appears to be provided by perl-misc, so I added that
and retried:

./run.sh unit_tests
Can't locate App/Prove.pm in @INC (you may need to install the
App::Prove module)

Adding perl-modules apparently pulled in the necessary module and got
the tests running.

lttng-tools_2.5.3.bb currently has:

RDEPENDS_${PN}-ptest += "make perl bash"

Should it specify perl-misc and perl-modules instead of just perl?
