Keep also in mind, that some (possibly short) part of the string should be 
unique.
(I see that INV *is* unique, but INVERTED seems better describing.)
I prefer
        INVERTED_SEE-README.ctest_export/doc/attic/DocStyle_pdf

As it is now, testing only _good_ export tests
        # ctest -R export -E INVERT
Checking if something is getting better
        # ctest -R export -R INVERT
