Include test script in release tarball

[c0dev0id]

Hi,
would it be possible include the scripts/run_tests.py script in the release tarball? The tests directory is already there, just the main script is missing. Or move run_tests.py from the scripts to the tests folder?

This would be handy for package maintainers to quickly run automated tests before packaging the updated version for their distribution.

Sure, this would be possible, but do you really need it? Its basic functionality (running all tests) can be easily replicated with a Bash oneliner

for t in test/test_*.py; do python "$t"; done

Sure, I can do this. I'd loose the summary and only get the individual script output. I also need to filter out (or rm) test_result.py, because that's not a test and runs into error.

I thought it might have been an oversight that the tests are shipped, but the run_tests.py is not.

Either way, if it's included in the next release, I'd prefer to use it. If not, I find other ways.
