My point is, that we have only the make target 'check', which runs all
ert tests located in different files. But I would also like to run only
the tests in, say for example, debbugs-tests.el. So we need an own
target for every *-tests.el file.

Both defconsts contain data. Those data belong into a ressource file,
and shall be read from there. Something like

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
;; -*- lisp-data -*-
(((cache_time . 5000) (source . "unknown") (unarchived)
  (keywords "patch") (blocks) (pending . "done") (severity . "normal")
  (done . "Michael Albinus <michael.albinus <at> gmx.de>") (location . "archive")
  (log_modified . 1689593050) (subject . "[PATCH 0/4] debbugs improvements")
  (last_modified . 1689593050) (found) (tags "patch") (package "emacs")
  (originator . "Morgan Smith <Morgan.J.Smith <at> outlook.com>") (archived . t)
  (blockedby) (affects) (mergedwith) (summary) (date . 1686745022)

  (owner) (found_versions) (fixed_date) (bug_num . 64064)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

With this, we could reuse tests with the sam logic, but different data
files. In the future.
