Right.

Is it possible to set up a test whereby we have three subdirectories, and we
just start dropping stuff in there?

  1) source
  2) destination
  3) expected diff

A test script can then just take triplets at will and run the test. We can
then just start loading the directories, rather than tweaking C code.

Cheers,
