This test is there to ensure that our capabilities detection code isn't broken somehow. How to gather test data: Firstly, the data is split into two separate files. The former (with suffix .replies) contains all the qemu replies. This is very fragile as introducing a new device can mean yet another monitor command and hence edit of this file in the future. But there's no better way of doing this. To get this data simply turn on debug logs and copy all the QEMU_MONITOR_IO_PROCESS lines. But be careful to not copy incomplete ones (yeah, we report some incomplete lines too). Long story short, at the libvirtd startup, a dummy qemu is spawn to get all the capabilities. The latter (with suffix .caps) contains capabilities XML. Just start a domain and copy the corresponding part from its state XML file. Including <qemuCaps> tag.

LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
