    .NOTES
        The original test this is based upon was written by June Blender.
        After several rounds of modifications it stands now as it is, but the honor remains hers.
 
        Thank you June, for all you have done!
 
    .DESCRIPTION
        This test evaluates the help for all commands in a module.
 
    .PARAMETER SkipTest
        Disables this test.
     
    .PARAMETER CommandPath
        List of paths under which the script files are stored.
        This test assumes that all functions have their own file that is named after themselves.
        These paths are used to search for commands that should exist and be tested.
        Will search recursively and accepts wildcards, make sure only functions are found
 
    .PARAMETER ModuleName
        Name of the module to be tested.
        The module must already be imported
 
    .PARAMETER ExceptionsFile
        File in which exceptions and adjustments are configured.
        In it there should be two arrays and a hashtable defined:
            $global:FunctionHelpTestExceptions
            $global:HelpTestEnumeratedArrays
            $global:HelpTestSkipParameterType
        These can be used to tweak the tests slightly in cases of need.
        See the example file for explanations on each of these usage and effect.
