We probably don't have a good overview document. In a nutshell, the test
suite is organized to match the Specification document it is testing.
Each chapter directory in the test suite corresponds to the same chapter
in the Open Groups version of the X Window System Specification
document. Each of the subdirectories of a chaper directory corresponds
to one of the interfaces specified in that chapter.

Here is probably as good a place as any. Please try to just post the
summary and not the really long report unless we are digging into
something specific.

TCM is the Test Case Manager. Did you happen to hit Ctrl-Z or try to run
the tests in the background
