It still boggles my mind how many issues are found before they are even 
committed to trigger a test suite issue with reviewboard. The 
combination of reviewboard and the test suite I think has caused the 
quality of code going into Asterisk, and the maintenance of that code, 
to be a significant step forward in Asterisk development.

I want to thank all the developers who have made this possible, and to 
Russell Bryant for making this such a high priority and getting the 
tools running. Thanks to everyone who has contributed so far and who 
plans on contributing in the future!

As for the book "Asterisk Test Suite: The Future of Asterisk", that'll 
have to work as we've been busy at work on the next Asterisk book, which 
I'm crazy excited about. We're still a few months off though as the 
amount of information we're planning on having in the book is pretty 
extensive!

(Although I think we'll probably have a section about the test suite in 
the book, similar to the blog post that I've written with some 
additional information about writing a simple test. We'll see!)
