As discussed here [0], node-build-system right now installs all the contents of a package's root node_modules directory, including i.e. tests. We should investigate how exactly npm decides what to install and try to replicate that inside node-build-system. It seems likely that it uses the "files" array from the package.json file (see [1-2]).
