I did not examine the test script, but all ideas for tests of various kinds
are always important, so please take the time to explain it to us if there
is some particular feature you would like to emphasize.

Personally, I would like to so a testing tool with which any inetd-client
could be tested for its runtime behaviour. I imagine some kind of fake-inetd
where response and triggers could be controlled, perhaps even scripted.
