Okay.

So, to summarise, all of these failures are expected :)
Is there a chance to get them less verbose? I just want to be sure that
I don't overlook a serious failure in so much output.

I don't intend to remove any test.

Yeah, I realized this later. We have a script checking for tests in all
shipped .m files in the package. That script obviously doesn't
take a location of an .m file into account.

Putting them in the public repository is fine, no problem. If there's a
way to avoid shipping them in a release, I would appreciate that,
though.

Thanks for the explanation
