To be honest, I don't really know what 'make check' does, but I do know
that it somehow runs the tests embedded in the sources. And for me,
that's enough information. So, all you need to contribute tests, is to
add them as described in the Chapter David mentioned, and then they will
be executed. Yeah, I know it's nice to know what's going on, but in this
case, you really don't need that information (I know, since I don't have
the information either)
