Hey!

I'm a little confused as you never provide a clear indication to
where shall I proceed? :-

Yes, this is a microproject after all. But I think I can work on this as
if it were a real project, should I proceed according to this plan? (I have
a lot of free time over this weekend)

Since my project does not deal with `test-lib-functions.sh`, I think I
should not edit it anyway, but I'd be more than happy to add a new
