This will create an $SIMPL_HOME/testing tree and place all of the existing SIMPL test scripts there. It will also populate the $SIMPL_HOME/scripts area with the SIMPL testing framework wrapper scripts.
Step 3: Setup the framework
You'll need to create an environment variable called TEST_HOME which for this particular framework is pointed at $SIMPL_HOME.
export TEST_HOME=$SIMPL_HOME
