This reverts commit 75c9936737a6ba991d4ef187ddc9d51bc0ad0998, reversing changes made to 7f13f5cd5f5a518638b15d7225eae2d88ec1efb5. I don't think `runZigBuild` belongs in std.testing. We already have `test/standalone/*` for this. Additionally test names should explain what they are testing rather than referencing GitHub issue numbers.
A general-purpose programming language and toolchain for maintaining robust, optimal, and reusable software.

License
The ultimate goal of the Zig project is to serve users. As a first-order effect, this means users of the compiler, helping programmers to write better software. Even more important, however, are the end-users.
Zig is intended to be used to help end-users accomplish their goals. Zig should be used to empower end-users, never to exploit them financially, or to limit their freedom to interact with hardware or software in any way.
However, such problems are best solved with social norms, not with software licenses. Any attempt to complicate the software license of Zig would risk compromising the value Zig provides.
Therefore, Zig is available under the MIT (Expat) License, and comes with a humble request: use it to make software better serve the needs of end-users.
This project redistributes code from other projects, some of which have other licenses besides MIT. Such licenses are generally similar to the MIT license for practical purposes. See the subdirectories and files inside lib/ for more details.
