OK, I have found test/generators_test.py and
test/generator_selection.py. Is there a fundamental reason why these
tests have to involve Jam code ? In other words, could the tests work by
calling the generator (Python) interface directly ? That would make it
simpler to understand their functionality at an API level.

Thanks !
