It uses TAP tests to kick pg_dump commands, and I haven't added any logic
for having more than one extension installed within a single test if that
is what you mean, but I assume that we could pass to prove_check a variable
able to install multiple paths and install their content. For now though
what I have done is adding one line to prove_check to install the content
of current directory to be able to run TAP tests with one extension.
