To add a new test:
To add a new demo:

it is intended to test for, and prints error message and exits with 1
If possible, make it so that your demo detects error/bug
it is intended to demonstrate, and prints error message and exits with 1
if the bug is detected, instead of relying on user to peruse strace output.
