Yeah, that still need some fixing. After we moved all packages to a mono repo, it became harder to run the tests:  
In the github action, you can see how to set things up:

> <https://github.com/JuliaPlots/Makie.jl/blob/master/.github/workflows/glmakie.yaml#L53>

Namely, clone the Makie repository and run:

```julia
pkg"dev . MakieCore GLMakie ReferenceTests; test Makie"

```
