[Webtest] Building suites and removing duplication

Hi webtest users,

We are currently trying to scale up Webtest for a project with lots of test
suites. How are you organizing your xml-test-files such that:

a) The individual suites - ie. files - can be run individually
b) can be composed hierarchically into collection suites
c) Don't contain any duplicated logic.

The missing include-functionality of ANT bites us. Using entities and DTDs
as "poor man's include" is rather obscure and unreadable. Is there a way to
define (parameterized) Webtest steps in one place and use them somewhere else?
I hope it's just my lack of ANT and Webtest knowledge...

Johannes
