Thanks for the heads up.  I noticed the error messages.  Happy to 
ignore
them.

I have attached two patches for your review.  I think the property 
tests
are complete; I've adjusted the tests to expect errors on register 
or
set rather than get.  The other patch is my first draft for 
testing
introspection.

I could dig deeper into the dbus-introspect-get-interface, but 
wanted to
come up for air first.  Let me know if you think it's worth the 
effort
given the individual method, signal, and property tests.

And, of course, let me know what you think should be reworked.

Thanks,
Hugh
