Adding tests for Geometry Nodes

Geometry Nodes tests are located under lib/tests/modeling/geometry_nodes

• Open Blender.
• Go to Geometry Nodes Tab.
• Add a new Node Tree.
• Add the node to be tested.
• Rename the default object to test_object.
• Save the blend file under any existing category (mesh, points, curves ...)
• If the category doesn't exist, add a new folder with the <category_name>.

Running the test

Test under an existing category

• Compile blender.
• From the terminal, go to the build folder.
• When running the test for the first time, set the BLENDER_TEST_UPDATE flag.
• Run test using ctest.

Test from a new category

• Update the CMakelists.txt located in tests\python to add the new category (Search geo_node in the file).
• The rest of the steps are same as above.
