+Subject: test.c
+
+The "tests" attribute of the "testsuite" element in the
+output XML now reflects only the tests actually requested
+to be executed instead of all the tests registered.
+
+The "failures" attribute was added to the "testsuite"
+element.
+
+Also added two new unit tests that just pass and fail
+to be used for testing CI itself.
