Mixed feeling on the tests with plain output, as we keep telling people
that plain output should not be parsed (not reliable, may change). But
if you want to run one or two tests with it, why not, I guess.

I thought about that and yes, testing the plain output is probably
redundant and makes those tests less readable. However, the only plain
output test which I would like to keep there is test_feature_macros -
because I guess that we are not planning to change names or patterns of
generated macros (or if so, we should test that change).


I did not mentally include the header/macros output in “plain output”, but yeah I guess I was not explicit on this one. So: Agreed, with “macros” it should not change and it is welcome in the tests, feel free to keep it :)
