Hi Willian,

I tend to agree, and my medium/long term vision is similar.  What I
expect to be able to do soon (this is connected to John's work) is to
have "avocado_qemu" as something like "qemu.testing.functional" which
describe its Avocado (and other) dependencies.

A "qemu.test.other" could describe its own dependencies (which may
not include Avocado).
