+tc Testing Suite To-Do list:
+
+- Determine what tc features are supported in the kernel. If features are not
+ present, prevent the related categories from running.
+
+- Add support for multiple versions of tc to run successively
+
+- Improve error messages when tdc aborts its run. Partially done - still
+ need to better handle problems in pre- and post-suite.
+
+- Use python logger module for debug/verbose output
+
+- Allow tdc to write its results to file.
+ Maybe use python logger module for this too.
+
+- A better implementation of the "hooks". Currently, every plugin
+ will attempt to run a function at every hook point. Could be
+ changed so that plugin __init__ methods will register functions to
+ be run in the various predefined times. Then if a plugin does not
+ require action at a specific point, no penalty will be paid for
+ trying to run a function that will do nothing.
+
+- Proper exception handling - make an exception class and use it
+
+- a TestCase class, for easier testcase handling, searching, comparison
+
+- a TestSuite class
+ and a way to configure a test suite,
+ to automate running multiple "test suites" with different requirements
+
+- super simple test case example using ls, touch, etc
