The whole point of this is to make the functionality available to users of libudev/gudev so that you can write tests for _those_ easily. I already pointed out two existing examples (upower and ubuntu-drivers-common) in my initial mail. This is also why I wrote that entire GUdevTestbed; testing gudev itself would be a lot simpler, but that's not the reason why we need it. So we do have to ship it, and document how upower and friends have to use it (presumably an "udevtestbed" wrapper script which finds and preloads the test library).
