Here is a quick overview of the main parts of this DTD.  For more information,
refer to the <a href="http://testng.org">main web site</a>.
                                                      
A <b>suite</b> is made of <b>tests</b> and <b>parameters</b>.
                                                      
A <b>test</b> is made of three parts:                        

<ul>
<li> <b>parameters</b>, which override the suite parameters     
<li> <b>groups</b>, made of two parts                           
<li> <b>classes</b>, defining which classes are going to be part
  of this test run                                    
</ul>
                                                      
In turn, <b>groups</b> are made of two parts:                
<ul>
<li> Definitions, which allow you to group groups into   
  bigger groups                                       
<li> Runs, which defines the groups that the methods     
  must belong to in order to be run during this test  
</ul>

<!-- Attributes: -->
<!--
@attr  name        The name of this suite (as it will appear in the reports)
@attr  junit       Whether to run in JUnit mode.
@attr  verbose     How verbose the output on the console will be.  
                This setting has no impact on the HTML reports.
@attr  parallel   Whether TestNG should use different threads
                to run your tests (might speed up the process)
@attr  thread-count An integer giving the size of the thread pool to use
                if you set parallel.
@attr  annotations  If "javadoc", TestNG will look for
                JavaDoc annotations in your sources, otherwise it will
                use JDK5 annotations.
@attr  time-out     The time to wait in milliseconds before aborting the
                method (if parallel="methods") or the test (parallel="tests")
@attr  skipfailedinvocationcounts Whether to skip failed invocations.
@attr  data-provider-thread-count An integer givin the size of the thread pool to use
       for parallel data providers.
@attr  object-factory A class that implements IObjectFactory that will be used to
       instantiate the test objects.

@attr  skipfailedinvocationcounts Whether to skip failed invocations.
@attr preserve-order If true, the classes in this tag will be run in the same order as
