Thanks, the patch pretty good.  A few think I'd like to improved,
though:

Please remove the test file after the test completed.  This is best done
in the cleanup function, as it's called both for sucessfull and error
exits.

The test should also be part of the quick and rw groups.

Please add a license header to the program, preferably GPLv2 or GPLv2 or
later.

The program is actually using the file name passed as the first
argument, and you're only using this variable for the error message,
please just remove it.
