@maxburke I think this PR looks good. Would you mind merging in my branch so move the testing over to SLT? Then I think we can merge here.

Done!
@maxburke Do you mind resolving that last comment on removing the unit test now that we have SLT? I don't think your PRs are configured to allow maintainers to commit to them. Or if you think we still need it in, lmk. Then I'll hit the merge button.
In order to work down the outstanding PR queue I will merge this one one and make a follow on PR to remove the unit test.
Thank you @maxburke @timsaucer @Jefffrey @martin-g and @comphead !
