This is mainly what I meant by 'a wrapper around the piuparts command' in the mail you quoted in bug 700848: On Mon, Feb 18, 2013 at 12:05:15PM +0100, Holger Levsen wrote: > Subject: Bug#700848: describe piuparts.d.o setup on about page > > On Samstag, 26.

Having a script that just takes a package as argument and runs a number of 'standard' piuparts tests (install test, upgrade test, etc) would be nice. As I wrote, I added some examples for that to the wiki, with a description how to set up this environment, but it would probably be nice if someone reviewed them to see if they make sense. Also, we should agree on a single location to store this kind of information (wiki.d.o, piuparts.d.o, the piuparts readme), so that it is easy to find.
