Overall idea is that `test/experimental/meta/ConceptsTest.qll` will set up inline expectation tests for all the classes defined in `Concepts.qll`, so any time you model a new instance of Concepts, you simply just import that file. That makes the tests a little verbose, but allows us to share test-setup between all the different frameworks we model. Note that since the definitions of SystemCommandExecution subclasses are scattered across multieple framework modeling qll files, it think it makes the most sense to have the tests for each framework in one location. I'm not 100% convinced about if this is the right choice or not (especially when we want to write tests for sanitizers), but for now I'm going to try it out at least.
CodeQL
This open source repository contains the standard CodeQL libraries and queries that power LGTM and the other CodeQL products that GitHub makes available to its customers worldwide. For the queries, libraries, and extractor that power Go analysis, visit the CodeQL for Go repository.
How do I learn CodeQL and run queries?
There is extensive documentation on getting started with writing CodeQL. You can use the interactive query console on LGTM.com or the CodeQL for Visual Studio Code extension to try out your queries on any open source project that's currently being analyzed.
