Thanks for the improvement. So far I tried to preserve as much as possible the
original test behavior to avoid accidentally removing some important features,
but I guess the more tests I work on, the more confident I will be to
"challenge" some parts ;)

For the record, the next test I am targeting is test_xdp_features.sh. I have
undertaken the conversion and have a working base but it still needs some work.

Thanks,

Alexis
