Details

in part of the work on bug 923770, talos is allowing for a setup/cleanup step.  This needs some form of documentation and there is little documentation on the different interfaces a test case has access to.
Blocks: 923770
I have a good start to this here:
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Buildbot/Talos/Misc#Adding_a_new_test

Please look at this and let me know if you have any additional questions.

I would still like to document:
* startup tests
* test definitions
* results.py and results processing

quite possibly I will need to make this in a easier to read format once I have all that information.
I have updated the documentation and feel that it is usable now to answer a lot of basic questions on talos tests.  As I receive more questions and patches, I can modify this to be more accurate.
