Good. The idea is to make it easier for newcomers to write tests
without learning the full API first.

You rarely need the full API, but finding the relevant part is
often tricky.

Too late :)

The bugs I mentioned where in the shell-like tests
implementation, my goal was to check that *you* could write the
failing tests that demonstrate bugs 425510 and 426410.

Hehe, no, nice catch to *you* shell-like tests now support that syntax !

Now that shell-like tests can handle glob-like expansion, you
can't reproduce the bugs anymore though :-/
