Hello Andrea,

Although it is possible to run regression tests on preinstalled 
binaries, it is not yet common or documented, so today, the only 
practical way is to be able to build from source.  Once you have all the 
source dependencies satisfied, the whole process of pulling the source, 
compiling/linking/installing, and testing is automatically handled by 
the Dart scripts.

Best regards,
Kern
