But as this will be running my attention was drawn with the HTTP_EVADER: OK that is constantly been shown when run.py is executing. When I then look in each individual test in the HTTP-EVADER tests, in individual tests files, in  their respective tests.yaml, in the 'requires' section there is no HTTP_EVADER_OK variable.

Well, it's not supposed to be found. It's just that *in case* it is
found in the requires section, we should execute that test and not
skip it (even if it was to be skipped for some reason).

hmm I do not see anything like this. Do you mean the following?

===> http-evader-003: OK
===> http-evader-004: OK
===> http-evader-005: OK
