Some short comments: 1. It should also work on Windows which is not possible with the currently implemented filename handling. 2. Probably a template for slapd.conf should be used which can be more easily adapted to various OpenLDAP releases, especially no references to specific schema files etc. 3. Data should be kept locally in a sub-directory like with OpenLDAP's test suite. No need for /var/blurb. 4. The assumption about slapd executable being in something like /usr/sbin/ is wrong. Rather the full path to slapd and slaptest should be specified.
