Thanks for doing this.

I'm surprised to see these split into their own section though.
I'd think it'd be better to keep each along side the corresponding test,
to make it easier to keep them in sync:

     test_tracepoints $trace_command "21 + 21 == 42" 10
+    test_tracepoints $trace_command "21 + 21 == 11" 0
     test_tracepoints $trace_command "42 - 21 == 21" 10
+    test_tracepoints $trace_command "42 - 21 == 11" 0

etc.

Could you do that?
