+ * This test is meant(!?) to run extensive tests on as much of moodle's 
+ * xhtml output as possible, using a test database as a stable test bed,
+ * and sending the output of each page to the w3c validating service
+ * (or some other service that can return a better report), and checking
+ * whether that report is valid or not.
+ * 
+ * A global function for validating xhtml output is badly needed.
+ * 
+ * One possible solution is to extend this WebTestCase class by adding a 
+ * AssertValidXhtml($output) method. The output is obtained by any 
+ * WebTestCase using $this->_browser->getContent().
+ * 
+ * Setting up validation scripts would then be very simple.
