This is what needs to be done, if I interpreted correctly:
1. Pick a folder from qaDevOOo/tests/java/ifc (Pick an interface)
2. Implement the interface picked into test/source (Organized into folders as
in original implementation
3. Pick a folder from qaDevOOo/tests/java/mod (Test cases, organized in
folders, let's call it mod_name here)
4. Implement the tests into the folder mod_name/qa/extras (mod_name folder at
project root)

Is this correct?
