These don't seem to be needed.

Add a few notes about what to do next. Also mention parallel tests in
at the top of thefile.

 skipped.
 
+Parallel tests
+--------------
+
+These tests can be run in parallel on sandbox. In that case any action taken
+by one test may be independent of another. For sandbox, care should be taken to
+ensure that tests are independent.
+
+Unfortunately, tests cannot be made independent on real hardware, since there is
+no way to reset the TPM other than restarting the board. Perhaps that would be
+the best approach?
