We already examples in Lintian::Tutorial::TestSuite (doc/tutorial/Lintian/Tutorial/TestSuite.pod). However, I suspect they have not been updated to reflect the "recent" changes to the test suite and its runner. I guess Lintian::Tutorial::WritingTests is equally out of date. Note: I am fine with removing those POD documents if we now prefer to keep this documentation elsewhere. However, if they remain, they should be updated to reflect the reality. Thanks, ~Niels
