We probably should start with the W3C testharness.js --- though I'm not a
huge fan of it myself, we have support for integrating it into our tests at
Mozilla and I think Blink does too.

You might want to look at
http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/content/media/webaudio/test/webaudio.jsto
see how Ehsan created a little framework for simplifying Web Audio
tests, and see if we can build something like that on top of testharness.js.
