      <h2>Abstract</h2>      <p>This defines an API for writing <dfn>test       suites</dfn>, to make it easy to portably test Scheme APIs, libraries,       applications, and implementations. A test suite is a collection of       <dfn>test cases</dfn> that execute in the context of a       <dfn>test-runner</dfn>. This specifications also supports writing new       test-runners, to allow customization of reporting and processing the       result of running test suites.</body></html>
