Sorry, I've just realized that I've forgotten to specify the subject.

Thanks a lot.

Very sensible.

We try to test as best as possible.  In other words: Comparing with a
known expected output would be better than just running the program.

Team upload is perfect.

I'll sponsor the package once you implemented the comparison you
mentioned above.

Thanks a lot for your work on this test.  You have proven that you
understood how this works.  I commited another change with the commit
description

	Install run-unit-test in user visible doc directory to enable
        users reproducing the test on their local machine and add
        README.test to explain how this works.

That's cosmetics but I consider this an interesting feature for our
users.

Kind regards

      Andreas.
