So is the goal here simply to duplicate the vtests using SVG? Or is
there additional automation can be applied to the existing process? If
you're already automating the diff reporting, what more does SVG
actually offer you? Yes, it would test both the PNG and SVG export
processes, but relative to automation: I don't see the difference
between running a diff between two PNG files vs. two text files. Am I
missing something?
If it's just duplicating the existing vtests to use SVG, that shouldn't
be too hard.

vtests themselves are all created manually - the source files and the

vtest folder - that's what actually generates the tests files and
diffs them against the reference. Go to vtest and type ./gen (you
might need to configure some things first so the script uses the right
version of MuseScore) and you'll see the tests being run; at the end
an HTML file is generated that you can inspect manually.

I now understand this a bit better, and want to understand it fully in
order to make it happen. I assume the goal would be to add SVG
exports
to the mtests, and leave the PNG vtests around, at least for now.
But I
know very little about how all this is set up.
I now know that the automated testing is setup in the mtests
folder. I
am assuming that the vtest files are generated automatically in mtests
somewhere, and I would need to duplicate that or add an SVG export of
the same scores. Correct?
Then there is the automated diff process and reporting on differences
encountered. Is there an existing way that this is done in MuseScore?
Those are my questions for now, I'm sure I'll have more as I get
into it...
