when Jakub started to look into lmdb for ldb as a backend, we didn't have any
test to verify that the API is working the same way with tdb and lmdb. For
that he started to write tests for the API. The tests also revealed some bugs.
If I look at the patchset I would expect more unit tests. The unit tests are
fast to run and we do that when we package ldb to verify it is working
correctly. Especially when we apply patches.
And if you think some things can't be tested, the mocking support of cmocka
might be the solution. Let me know if you need help.
Cheers,
Andreas
