I'm surprised no one has yet mentioned Sun's very own SISSL, which has
been OSI approved, and I believe would be a better way of achieving what
you want to achieve anyways. Or at the very least, could provide a
better template to start from.

Not allowing the test suite to be modified prevents people from fixing
bugs in the test suite or improving it with additional tests. Might be
OSD conformant, but still seems like a bad idea. IMHO.
