Most of the intersection comes from the fact that this series adds auto 
discovery of test suites and test cases, therefore treating the test 
cases as objects with labels for processing and filtering.

In his capability patches Juraj also needed to turn test cases into 
objects to add runtime metadata to them, such as required capabilities.
