<title>Test suite templates</title>
<p>The Erlang mode for the Emacs editor includes two Common Test test suite
templates, one with extensive information in the function headers, and
one with minimal information. A test suite template provides a quick start
for implementing a suite from scratch and gives you a good overview
of the available callback functions. Here are the templates in question:
