====== Daniel Verkamp: Automated regression testing ======

===== Journal Week 9 =====

==== Monday, July 20 ====

Implemented configuration file loading for Test::Machine, as discussed with Michael.

Configuration file syntax:

  key = value
  # comment

Trailing comments on ''key = value'' lines are currently not supported to allow for arbitrary value content.
Leading and trailing whitespace on ''key'' and ''value'' is trimmed.

Usage example:

  use Test::Machine;
  my $machine = Test::Machine->load ( "config" );

Current configuration options supported:

  * ''type'': currently only ''QEmu''
  * ''hdd''/''fdd''/''cdrom'' followed by index (ex ''hdd0''): value is filename (ex ''server.hd'')
  * ''nic'': followed by index, period, and sub-option (ex ''nic0.type''); suboptions are those supported by given machine type
  * ''snapshot'': snapshot filename to load
