+automated testing, i.e. a test framework.  Native tests are written in Python
+and they follow the unittest pattern, but any executable can serve as a
+test.  The following output formats are supported:
+@table @asis
+@item xUnit
+an XML format that contains test results in a structured form, and are used by
+other test automation projects, such as Jenkins.
+@item JSON
+a widely used data exchange format.  The JSON Avocado plugin outputs job
+information, similarly to the xunit output plugin.
+@item TAP
+Provides the basic TAP (Test Anything Protocol) results.  Unlike most existing
+Avocado machine readable outputs this one is streamlined (per test results).
