Whiteboard
Other ideas (non-committal):
- umockdev: generic ioctl emulation
bluetooth:
- qemu emulates half of it, but not enough to be useful
- there should be a kernel driver similar to mac80211_hwsim, but there isn't
autopilot-qt property watching:
- checked "the property system", "the event system", QEvent, and stackoverflow.com
- it doesn't seem possible to get a generic signal/callback for any event change, there is no QEvent::Type like "PropertyChanged"
- one could iterate over all properties of all widgets and check MetaProperty:
- only 81 out of the 626 defined widget properties have notifiers, and *none* of QWidget's properties have them, so it's not worth the effort; you would miss almost all of the interesting ones.
