[Opensource] How to write/run ControllerTestCase/Suite

[Mike Traum]

Ivan,
I'm glad you worked your problems out. The docs don't talk about a
'test' context because it's only needed to run Expresso tests, which is
usually only needed by Expresso contributors. But, as always, I'd be
happy to commit your documentation. You can send them to me directly if
you like.

Thanks,
mike
