If you want details it is special library for black box testing
applications by spawning them as external processes and
interacting with their shell/network API. To minimize boilerplate
test scenarios are derived from special TestCase class and test
runner finds all classes that derive from TestCase automatically.
Marking them all as export will be inconvenient but is possible -
but I'd like to get something useful in return, like well-defined
and working export for example.

https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11595 is the main
offender. Currently the task 'find all symbols with a given trait
in the whole program' can't be implemented at CT.
