If I do foo and foo-test, then I would probably place foo-test on Hackage. Alternatively, just give foo a pointer to the location of the foo-test darcs repo location. But then it might not be easy for users to keep the versions in sync. On Wed, Sep 10, 2008 at 10:24 AM, Wolfgang Jeltsch < g9ks157k@acme.softbase.org> wrote:

My current leaning is to split a package "foo" into packages "foo" and "foo-test"
What benefit does this provide?
It keeps the library and its dependencies small.
Do you publish foo-test on Hackage? If yes than the HackageDB gets cluttered with test packages. If not, there is no easy way for users to run your tests.
