The run-ptest script is currently required to be in WORKDIR.
Actually run-ptest is currently required to be present in
/usr/lib/<package>/ptest. If a package is "ptest-aware", that  package
should contain a  install-ptest make target which will take care of
installing the run-ptest file.
In summary, the options seem to be as follows:

# option 1 -- package includes run-ptest, recipe points to it
PTEST_RUN_SCRIPT_PATH = "path/to/run-ptest"

# option 2 -- recipe copies run-ptest to WORKDIR
# This leverages meta/classes/ptest.bbclass do_install_ptest_base.
do_compile_ptest () {
         oe_runmake buildtest-TESTS
         cp ${S}/path/to/run-ptest ${WORKDIR}
}

# option 3 -- package installs run-ptest
# The recipe requires custom do_install_ptest because there is no
# run-ptest in WORKDIR so meta/classes/ptest.bbclass does not call
# do_install_ptest_base.
do_install () {
         oe_runmake DESTDIR=${D} install

         # Copied from do_install_ptest_base.
         install -D ${S}/ptest/run-ptest ${D}${PTEST_PATH}/run-ptest
         oe_runmake DESTDIR=${D}${PTEST_PATH} install-ptest
         chown -R root:root ${D}${PTEST_PATH}

         # Hack alert!  had to comment out do_install_ptest_base[cleandirs] in
         # meta/classes/ptest.bbclass to test this option.
}

My inexperience shows here with option #3 which attempted to address the 
comments
by Ross and Tudor, but which does not actually work (tested on Fido branch).
I think that we should modify do_install_ptest_base to run do_install_ptest and install the Makefile irrespective of the presence of run-ptest file in ${WORKDIR}
Something like:
do_install_ptest_base() {
    if [ -f ${WORKDIR}/run-ptest ]; then
        install -D ${WORKDIR}/run-ptest ${D}${PTEST_PATH}/run-ptest
    fi
    if grep -q install-ptest: Makefile; then
        oe_runmake DESTDIR=${D}${PTEST_PATH} install-ptest
    fi
    do_install_ptest
}

Does this fits with your needs?

  Tudor


Maybe there is an option #4, where the recipe does *not* inherit ptest, but 
that would
place a significant burden on the recipe author (detecting PTEST_ENABLED, adding
tasks, etc).  No doubt there is an easier way.  Sorry for being such a noob!
