+# Example Usage
+#
+#   # This is a standard test() template from //testing/test.gni. This generates

+#     sources = [ "foo_unittest.cc" ]
+#
+#     deps = [
+#       ":foo",
+#       "//testing/gtest",
+#       "//testing/gmock",
+#     ]
+#   }
+#
+#   # And another standard test() target, which generates bar_unittests
+#   test("bar_unittests") {
+#     sources = [ "bar_unittest.cc" ]
+#
+#     deps = [ ... ]

+#   # This is an organizational target. This cannot be built directly.

I did not understand the comment about not being built directly.

There is no ninja target created with this name. In this case, the targets
"cast_tests_build_list" and "cast_tests_filters" will be created (transparent to
the developer). These are depended upon by cast_group_test_list targets.

However, calling ninja -C out/Release cast_tests will give you something like:
No such target exists.

+#   cast_test_group("cast_tests") {
+#     tests = [
+#       ":bar_unittests",
+#       "//path/to:foo_unittests",
+#     ]
+#   }
+#
+#   # Here is another cast_test_group target which builds a bunch of other
+#   # test binaries, and wants to apply some filters.
+#   cast_test_group("external_tests") {
+#     tests = [
+#       "//path/to/widget:widget_unittests",
+#       "//even/more/foo:foo_unittests",
+#     ]
+#
+#     filters = [
+#       "widget_unittests --gtest_filter=-WidgetTest.TestToBeFiltered",
+#     ]
+#   }
+#
+#   # Build this to create build and run lists for bar and foo tests.
+#   cast_test_group_list("cast_test_lists") {
+#     test_groups = [
+#       ":cast_tests",
+#       ":external_tests",
+#     ]
+#
+#     build_list_paths = "$root_out_dir/path/to/test/build_list.txt"
+#
+#     run_list_path = "$root_out_dir/path/to/list/run_list.txt"
+#   }
+
+import("//testing/test.gni")
+
+# This directory must be the same for every cast_test_group instance.
+_shared_dir = "$root_gen_dir/chromecast/tests"
+
+# An group of test executables. Including a test target in this group makes it

nit: An -> A

[slan, 2015/10/01 20:08:03]

Done.

+# possible for chrome It also defines an action which generates a build

[mbjorge, 2015/10/01 17:11:40]

I think you a word here?

[slan, 2015/10/01 20:08:03]

This guy.

+# list of all |tests|, and an action which generates a run list of all |tests|.
+# Do not build these internal targets. Build cast_test_group_list instead.

[mbjorge, 2015/10/01 17:11:40]

(This is basically the comment I want next to cast_test_group("cast_tests"))

[slan, 2015/10/01 20:08:03]

Done.

+#
+# Parameters
+#   tests (required)
+#       A list of cast_test targets included in the assembly. Do not include any

[mbjorge, 2015/10/01 17:11:40]

list of cast_test targets, or just test targets?

[slan, 2015/10/01 20:08:03]

Good catch, removed.
