//         base::GetMultiProcessTestChildBaseCommandLine());
//     // Maybe add our own switches to |command_line|....

// MultiProcessTest ------------------------------------------------------------

// A MultiProcessTest is a test class which makes it easier to
// write a test which requires code running out of process.
//
// To create a multiprocess test simply follow these steps:
//
// 1) Derive your test from MultiProcessTest. Example:
//
//    class MyTest : public MultiProcessTest {
//    };
//
//    TEST_F(MyTest, TestCaseName) {
//      ...
//    }
//
// 2) Create a mainline function for the child processes and include
//    testing/multiprocess_func_list.h.
//    See the declaration of the MULTIPROCESS_TEST_MAIN macro
//    in that file for an example.
// 3) Call SpawnChild("foo"), where "foo" is the name of
//    the function you wish to run in the child processes.
// That's it!
