[plt-scheme] Best way to run a bunch of test-suites with schemeunit?

I'm not quite sure that's what I asked for, did I? I thought I was
just asking for an easier way to get started with a test suite and
better ways to add stuff to the test suite, but only as it was needed.
(Currently, lots of boilerplate is required, imo).
