It searches stdout (and stderr, piped to stdout). I'm not sure if you
can embed CRLFs in the search, or if you could possibly craft a decent
search query that python can parse. I can look into it.

As long as you know the expected output, you can create multiple tests.

All output is logged at the end. A TODO is to log it to a file and/or
in a junit format, but I've not done that yet.

It is lightweight, yes. But it's something i put together real quick
as a prototype, and I've found it useful for running through 10+ cases
at a time. I'm sure it can do more than that, but I haven't tried.
And I'm always open to suggestions.
