This is how my original test suite worked, and it's generally okay
except I think we sometimes want wildcarding or pattern matching
capabilities in the expect portion of the test.  And as you mentioned
it's really only good for testing markup -- we'd also need a testing
framework for PmWiki's internal operations such as saving files and
page history and the like.  But perhaps testing markup is a good 
enough start.
