The in-tree lit tests are very focused unit tests. The principle here is that a more focused test will be easier to diagnose when it fails. The LLVM project on its own really does not have much end-to-end testing and hardly any of that looks at debug info. Instead we have a bunch of vendors all running their own test suites. It's very much a tradeoff, and I personally view the in-tree lit tests as barely more than basic smoke tests. But it's how the project works, and so new in-tree tests need to be consistent with that approach.
