Hi William,

You can't.  The dynamic plugin suite is a single test, there is no way 
to just run the mep plugin test without editing the code.  Note, the 
dynamic plugin test suite is just to test the new "dynamic" 
functionality of plugins,  it does not do a full plugin test(for any of 
the plugins), but it just tests one or two key features from each plugin.

We have internal tests that are slowly being ported over to lib389 in 
the DS source code.  However, a full MEP test suite has not been ported 
to lib389 yet.

Regards,
Mark
