Add instructions for using with jbuilder about ppx_inline_test HOT 6 CLOSED

Finally managed to make this work:

jbuild:

(library
 ((name foo)
  (public_name foo)
  (library_flags (-linkall))
  (libraries (base ppx_inline_test.runtime-lib))
  (preprocess (pps (ppx_inline_test ppx_driver.runner)))
  )
 )

(executable
 ((name test_runner)
  (modules (test_runner))
  (libraries (foo ppx_inline_test.runner.lib))))

(alias
 ((name    runtest)
  (deps    (test_runner.exe))
  (action  (run ${<} inline-test-runner foo))))

With test_runner.ml:

Ppx_inline_test_lib.Runtime.exit ()

from ppx_inline_test.

(You're already aware of this, but this is related to ocaml/dune#65)

from ppx_inline_test.

waitting for ocaml/dune#338

from ppx_inline_test.

Finally managed to make this work:

Doing something similar with my own library and test driver, I get an error message:

You are doing something unexpected with the tests. No tests have 
been run. You should use the inline_tests_runner script to run 
tests.

What step am I missing?

The README file mentions the necessity of adding:

-inline-test-lib libname

but that does not appear in the example here.

As of Jbuilder 1.0+beta19, inline tests are directly supported simply by adding (inline_tests) to the jbuild stanza: https://discuss.ocaml.org/t/jbuilder-inline-tests/1741

So if I understand the situation correctly, this issue can be closed by incorporating the relevant portions of that Discuss post into the project README.

@leviroth Yep, that works here. Thanks!
