.. I guess the expected value for the description in your example is
"normal()" -- to turn it into a test script, I mean.
@Artur: I know this is an old thread, but could I motivate you to add
this case to the official collection? As I wrote before (and just
verified with a recent snapshot), what we want as the result of the last
line in the script is the string "normal()".
