    Also, considering your code, I am not sure, bit I think it is a terrible idea to install libraries on other people computers without clearly stating it, or perhaps stating it as a requirement and what is going to happen. I am referring to your "test suite". Especially since you are actually using ERT which is included in Emacs. Why should you fetch org, undercover or Quelpa??!! or even require it for your tests is an even bigger mystery, not to mention other libraries. You should probably redesign your tests completely. I haven't looked much at rest of your code in tests, or your main code, I just saw the first lines of tests.el.
