    I had a look today at using the new general purpose TestFrameworkAssertions 
as per Alex’s comment 
[above](https://github.com/apache/incubator-brooklyn/pull/1030#discussion_r45317688).
    
    One issue with that is that the general purpose code doesn’t give the 
same level of detail in the error message if the assertions fail.   For 
instance with a test with several failing assertions:
    ```
        - type: org.apache.brooklyn.test.framework.SimpleShellCommandTest
          targetId: testprocess5
          command: hostname
          assertStatus:
            - equals: 1
          assertOut: 
            - equals: bogus
            - contains: porkpie
          assertErr: 
            - equals: explosion
    ```
    The general purpose class gives the following: 
    ```
    Failure running task invoking start[locations] on 1 node (JnQQSTYi): 
org.apache.brooklyn.util.exceptions.PropagatedRuntimeException: 
org.apache.brooklyn.util.exceptions.PropagatedRuntimeException: Error invoking 
start at TestCaseImpl{id=UwYqp5yt}: 
org.apache.brooklyn.util.exceptions.PropagatedRuntimeException: 
java.lang.AssertionError: expected [true] but found [false]
    ```
    While the current code gives
    ```
    Failure running task start (Lbltxgqq): java.lang.AssertionError: Assertion 
Failures: exit code equals 1 stdout equals bogus stdout contains porkpie stderr 
equals explosion
    ```
    It may be valuable to extend the general purpose code to give more detail 
but I think that’s a separate issue from 1030.  I think the other comments 
are all done, so I would like to propose leaving the assertion handling as it 
is for the moment, in which case I hope this PR could be merged?
    
    Let me know what you think,
    
    regards
    Geoff
