METADATA EXTRACTION & TEST CATALOGUE
There is an ongoing experiment that attempts to extract metadata from the
testcases, we also have a proof of concept web page that renders the json
metadata into a browseable test documentation. There is not much there yet,
but we are hoping, among other things, to build a nice, searchable and
browseable test catalogue based on these efforts.
