If you have time > to do this, that will be great. It can be done as a separate effort. Some inspiration, what sort of helpers can be for shell see LTP shell API [1]. These helpers tests help tests to be short, readable and with unified output. (I like library variables [2] which are self describing and making test even shorter), setup and cleanup functions called automatically, ... The same applies for C API [3] (e.g. SAFE_*() helpers for handling errors, ...).
I wonder if there is even any interest of having any sort of helpers or even framework for shell, when so far there was nothing.
