The key idea of QMTest is that it's an extensible testing platform.  We
didn't try to handle every kind of testing with built-in facilities
because there are too many different kinds of testing.

QMTest's job is to execute tests, store results, and show you the
output.  It's the test designer's job to write the software to perform
an individual test.  

Someone will have to write code to poke at the DOS application to see
whether it's done the right thing; that's not built into QMTest.
