You might have to adjust the llvm-cbe and lli paths in that configuration.

If you want the tests to run faster, installing `pytest-xdist` will allow you to run the test suite in parallel, e.g. `pytest -n 4` if you want to use 4 cores.

FAQ: Version Update Policy
==========================

The policy of this project is to only support latest released version of LLVM on the head of repo here.
The rationale is that supporting multiple versions is additional work for a project which has no sponsors.
Additionally, since there are very few changes, other than version compatibility maintenance,
anyone using an older version of LLVM can just checkout the last commit to work on that branch.
