The fstests has too many big or small testing groups, and it keeps
growing. It's hard for many users to pick up test cases they need.
Likes the smoketest, soak test, random-load test, integrality test
and so on. So most of users might just run "quick" group, or "auto"
group, or "all" directly each time. Besides the group, there're
some global parameters (e.g. *_FACTOR, SOAK_DURATION, etc) too, so
there're many "portfolios" to use them.

So I think fstests can provide a test template, which is bigger than
group, base on group and global parameters, provide reference about
how to do some kinds of tests.

Some users who are familar with fstests have their own wrappers, they
do different kind of tests by fstests according their experience.
They have their different testing templates, some templates might be
helpful and recommended to others. So I'd like to let fstests provide
a template/ directory and a "-t" option to load template. By this
chance, hope more people can share their great test templates to
others. We can record these templates in fstests, then anyone can use
them directly or refer to them to write their wrapper.
