That's what pa_ounit [1] is doing. It allows you to write this in the
source code:

TEST name? = <boolean expr> (* true means ok, false or exn means broken *)
TEST_UNIT name? = <unit expr> (* () means ok, exn means broken *)
TEST_MODULE name? = <module expr> (* to group TESTs (to share some setup
for instance) *)

And have the tests run if you pass specific command line arugments.
