+Subject: [PATCH] tests/shell: Assert non-verbose mode is silent
+
+Unexpected output from iptables commands might mess up error-checking in
+scripts for instance, so do a quick test of the most common commands.
+
+Note: Test adds two rules to make sure flush command operates on a
+non-empty chain.
