No worries.
It is already the case that the kunit_tool assumes you have the
source. It's purpose is to build tests, run them, and collect results.
We are working on separating these functions, but right now given that
the script assumes it will build the kernel for you, it is necessarily
the case that you have source.
You can, nevertheless, build and run KUnit tests without the use of
our scripts, which should work for most applications.
