Hi Manas,

I noticed your application to join the Debian Med team and accepted
it to enable you to work right in the official repository.

You just need to add that folder.  If it helps you can copy the template
in

   https://salsa.debian.org/med-team/community/package_template/tree/master/debian/tests

We usually design the test in a way that users can also run it on their
local machine.  There are several examples in other Debian Med packages
(for instance in t-coffee - which is not a specific example I'm just
mentioning it since it was just on my desk due to #909530 which needs
some work as well).

Cool.  I'd love if you give this short introduction also on the public
Debian Med mailing list debian-med at lists.debian.org.

Thanks a lot for your contribution
