Description

One of the main goals for this project is to be used in the node-gyp. This means, though, that we should make sure that the most of the existing binding.gyp files will work with gyp.js. Thus, "smoke testing" is needed badly.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Look at the existing test suite and add smoke tests that verify compatibility with various binding.gyp files from node gyp modules. Start by identifying commonly used npm packages that use node gyp and include their binding.gyp files in the test fixtures.
