1This testsuite is quite obviously a work in progress.  As such,
2there are a number of good extensions.  If you are looking for
3something to do, feel free to tackle one or more of the following:
4
5Moving to the new format.
6  The old way was "lots of little tests files in a directory", which
7  doesn't interact well with source control systems.  The new test
8  format is command.tests files that use testing.sh.
9
10Every busybox applet needs a corresponding applet.tests.
11
12Full SUSv3 test suite.
13  Let's make the Linux Test Project jealous, shall we?  Don't just
14  audit programs for standards compliance, _prove_ it with a regression
15  test harness.

18
19Some tests need root access.
20  It's hard to test things like mount or init as a normal user.
21  Possibly User Mode Linux could be used for this, or perhaps
22  Erik's buildroot.
23
24libbb unit testing
25  Being able to test the functions of libbb individually may
26  help to prevent regressions.
