Yes - that what it looks like. It just seems to be a single issue, with lots of dependencies. So as we commit new features, we could open issues for tests that will test our new code (in a completely complimentary way to any lower level junit or integration tests). Hopefully it might draw other people in to using and being happy to interact with JIRA. It also seems to give a nice way of tracking progress for a testathon, and for tracking the actions if any tests fail. It would be interesting to talk to someone at Moodle to find out if they are able to copy the tests in bulk, so that when it comes to testing the next release, they can make a fresh copy of all the test issues.
