> * Write tests!

libtap's tests are implemented by creating a set of reference test scripts
using Test::More, capturing the output from those, and then making sure
that the output from the same test implemented using libtap is the same
(modulo changes in line numbers and filenames in the test output).  You
might be able to play similar games.

FWIW it also checks that the exit code from the test programs match.

Feel free to use (and extend) this set of reference tests.  You can see 
the tests at:
