  Description     : Framework for automated testing

Avocado is a next generation testing framework inspired by Autotest and modern 
development tools such as git.

It is a set of tools and libraries to help with automated testing. One can call 
it a test framework with benefits. Native tests are written in Python and they 
follow the unittest pattern, but any executable can serve as a test.

The main features are:
 * Multiple result formats (human-readable/xUnit/JSON/TAP)
 * Job Replay to reproduce a given job
 * Job Diff to compare several aspects of two given jobs
 * Plugin system for framework extension
 * Utility libraries to perform basic operations like process execution, system 
information obtain, package management, etc
 * Good documentation available:
