Hi,
The test done in the autopkgtest of 'glyr' does not provide
significant test coverage and it should be marked with "Restrictions:
superficial".
Ref: https://people.debian.org/~eriberto/README.package-tests.html
Examples of tests which are not significant includes (its not a
complete list):
1) Executing the binary to check version
Test-Command: foo -v
Test-Command: foo -V
Test-Command: foo --version
2) Executing the binary to check help (foo -h)
Test-Command: foo -h
Test-Command: foo --help
3) checking for files installed with 'ls'.
Test-Command: ls -l /usr/lib/*/foo.so
4) A Python or Perl library runs import foo or require Foo; but does
not attempt to use the library beyond that.
Test-Command: python3 -c "import foo"
Please add "Restrictions: superficial" to 'debian/tests/control' of
'glyr'.
