Thank you for the reference. I had a short look on your tests and
what I can see currently that your tests have a different approach
than mine. I think this is a good think because we are not testing
the same.

If I understand correctly your tests are executing the real-world
system calls what a normal V4L2 application would use.

My test cases takes the V4L2 specification as a base and uses the
boundary value analysis and equivalence class analysis. This means in
practice that there are some test cases in my v4l-test that will
probably never used by any user space application but is a potential
risk when those invalid values are not handled.

The second feature of my testsuite is that it tries to execute the
test cases and evaluate test results automatically as far as it is
possible. This makes it possible to use my testsuite for regression
tests.

If you think that my project is useful I agree that it can be included
under the v4l2-apps/test project.
