	endif

Can we use the following?

utility_test_srcs = [
    ...,
    'io_util_test.cc'
    ...
]
if host_machine.system() == 'windows'
    # This manifest enables long file paths on Windows 10+
    # See https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/fileio/naming-a-file#enable-long-paths-in-windows-10-version-1607-and-later
    if cpp_compiler.get_id() == 'msvc'
        utility_test_srcs += ['io_util_test.manifest']
    else
        utility_test_srcs += ['io_util_test.rc']
    endif
endif

Do we need this?

[WillAyd]

We do. I think there are ways to improve the terminology, but technically the arrow_test_dep becomes a disabler only if needs_testing is false. It is possible for needs_tests to be false while needs_testing is true. Without this extra condition these tests would build when -Dtests=false and -Dtesting=true

I do wonder if it wouldn't be better to have an arrow_test_dep and separately an arrow_testing_dep

[kou]

If we need this here, we need it for test('arrow-utility-test', exc) too?

It seems that we don't need both arrow_test_dep and arrow_testing_dep. Can we use this instead?

if needs_tests
    arrow_test_dep = declare_dependency(
        link_with: [arrow_test_lib],
        dependencies: [arrow_dep, filesystem_dep, gmock_dep, gtest_main_dep],
    )
else
    arrow_test_dep = disabler()
endif

[kou]

Do we need gtest_main_dep here?

[WillAyd]

arrow_test_dep already provides gtest_main_dep transitively

[kou]

Ah, arrow_test_dep doesn't link to only libarrow_testing.so.

Then can we remove filesystem_dep from arrow-crc32-test dependencies?
