The first thing coming in my mind was using something like 
/usr/pkg1/test  and put a configuration file for each package 
(containing path and other stuff) into something like 
/etc/tests/conf.d/. The benefit of this would be that additional 
information can be stored for each test.

Just my 2 cents
