Vivek,

I added documentation about all the features I added to unionmount-testsuite at:
https://github.com/amir73il/overlayfs/wiki/Overlayfs-testing#Unionmount_testsuite

Will add that link to README on the next master branch update.
Let me know if there is anything missing for you in this wiki page.

Thanks,
Amir.
