OVAL signoff: Show testing procedures?

When OVAL testing, should we show *how* we tested the OVAL? For example:
https://lists.fedorahosted.org/pipermail/scap-security-guide/2013-September/004023.html

IMO this helps by:
- Allowing the community to remind of us niche test cases, such as the 
"Match" in sshd pointed out by Rui Bernardino
- Documenting test cases, which someday should (will?) make their way 
into automated test cases

I found the overhead of copy/pasting what I was doing to be incredibly 
minimal.
