SimpleTestExampleMockModuleTestCase	modules/examples/simpletest_example/simpletest_example.test	SimpleTestExampleMockModuleTestCase allows us to demonstrate how you can use a mock module to aid in functional testing in Backdrop.
SimpleTestExampleTestCase	modules/examples/simpletest_example/simpletest_example.test	The SimpleTestExampleTestCase is a functional test case, meaning that it actually exercises a particular sequence of actions through the web UI. The majority of core test cases are done this way, but the SimpleTest suite also provides unit tests as…
