I've just found out that there is currently a proposal in the Gnome project to change the way they write and run tests. I know Colin posted it a few weeks ago but somehow I missed the mail and I suspect others did too:
https://live.gnome.org/GnomeGoals/InstalledTests When you read through this, you will see echos of what we're trying to do with ptest and its not a coincidence! Certainly, interfacing tests like the above with ptest should be straight forward. I know the people involved in this would love feedback. There is some resistance in the Gnome community to a change like this but it would obviously be very in keeping with our goals and the higher level goal of making it easier for people to run these tests and getting wider spread and more diverse usage of them. I was thinking about the design overnight and I like it, I'm not sure I have any suggestions for improving it right now, I certainly support it.
