And there's already pgfouine to get the scenarios from the logs and
tsung to act as a recording proxy:
http://pgfouine.projects.postgresql.org/tsung.html
http://tsung.erlang-projects.org/user_manual.html#htoc34

So maybe it would be a good idea to have dtester able to replay a tsung
session file so that we already know how to get this input?

Then dtester would be for validating queries output and tsung for
testing the scalability, both working with the same format.
