Synopsis: Autotest conflicts with the compiler

Description
I've been playing with Autotest to generate tests but realized that that each time autotest add a new class to the system, the compiler tries to recompile it, because this is the new behavior of the compiler to compile new added classes. But here this is clearly a mistake.

I'm thinking that it should be done when autotest is done generating all the tests, not each time that a new test is created.

I don't see what is wrong about this, if AutoTest adds a new test class it should be available to the user like any other class. How else would you suggest should new test classes be added to the system (preferably without forcing the user to run a "find new classes" compilation)?
