Hi Luis-

Unfortunately, we do not currently have any such tests for the DRC. The
problem is that we don't currently have a way of writing the output of the
DRC to a file. This makes it difficult to run an automatic regression test
with our current testing framework. Producing such output is on my todo
list! Having the input files ready will be a big help when I get there.

The pcb test suite is an area that could use a substantial development
effort. I've been trying to create new tests as I work through other
problems, but this is a slow process and it is far from complete.
Consequently, all contributions are welcome!

Thanks,
--Chad
