It's also worth noting that the tests under mysql-test/t belong to a
suite implicitly called 'main'. So in the test log, you'll find the
test 1st listed as main.1st and so on.

You can also run all the tests in t/ by specifying --suite-main.

A few suites have test files directly under suite/<name>/ rather than
suite/<name>/t/ since MTR will also look there. I would recommend
always putting new tests in a suite under suite/<name>/t/ to avoid
confusion.
