------------------------------------+---------------------------------------
 After several tries I have figured out how to create an XML output from an
 unit test.
 I have redirected (_unit_test --log_level=test_suite --log_format=XML >>
 log.xml) the output to a file, so I can automatically parse the file for
 errors.

 But I was not able to open the created XML file. After a few analizes I
 have figured out why the XML file was corrupt. The "dumping objects"
 output is just added without XML Tags.

 Either the "dumping objects" output should be parametrizeable (on/off) or
 written in XML format too.

 The other thing is that the test summary is not inside the XML file:
 *** 1 failure detected in test suite "Master Test Suite". This should also
 be written inside XML Tags, to have the possibility to have an overview
 either the test succeeded or not.

 The last point is that I have always the "Master Test Suite" appears
 somewhere and I don´t know why. Also when there are errors inside the test
 this is shown with Master suite as written above.
