       such part.

FENNEC PROJECT

       This module is part of the Fennec project. See Fennec for more details.	Fennec is a project to develop an extendable and powerful testing
       framework.  Together the tools that make up the Fennec framework provide a potent testing environment.

       Such tools are turned into their own projects. This is one such project.
