One enhancement for `port test` that I would like to see would be an option
to run the test phase automatically instead of having to explicitly call it
with `port test`: https://trac.macports.org/ticket/42731
Also test phase dependencies would be useful, especially if we are talking
about CPAN ports, because I know when using CPAN manually it would often
print a message about some dependencies only being needed for testing:
