I may be wrong, please feel free to correct me, but I believe what 
Gregory meant is to write raw Scapy and testpmd commands directly in 
YAML-written tests. As in, we wouldn't be using our own text format, 
we'd just need to feed the raw commands from YAML straight to the Scapy 
and testpmd shells. Finally, validate their responses to what was set in 
the YAML test. In Gregory's example this is just comparing stdout.

Best,
Luca
