I will add parameter --config <file-name> for the framework and config file 
will present parameters like this:

namespace boost
  namespace test
    namespace log
      namespace format

      xml::doc_tag   TestLog
      xml::suite_tag   TestSuite
      xml::case_tag   TestCase

      endnamespace
    endnamespace
  endnamespace
endnamespace
