Implement a simple TAP-based test engine in bash and a few basic tests using it, to be used to check for bugs and regressions. A new "check" target is added to the rtla Makefile that runs the test suite using the "prove" command implemented by Test::Harness. The only test format currently supported is running rtla with defined command arguments per test, checking its exit code. In case the exit code is non-zero, the output of rtla is displayed, together with the exit code. The test cases are adopted from rtla tests in the Continuous Kernel Integration (CKI) project [1] with the authors' approval.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
