ZUnit - cleanup testcase not complete

We are evaluating ZUnit with IDz 15.0.1 for implementation at our company later this year.

regarding the issue of cleaning up related test case files I already mentioned in case TS005589217 - caching issue during record for testcase
"Just for your info I noticed that other testcase related file are not deleted on mainframe e.g. CERATSO.U29047.ZUNIT.PLAYB.DXXT1.BKUP0 => backup files of playback file created during process of import

CERATSO.U29047.ZUNIT.PLAYB.INTERIM.DXXT1 => in between file of playback file were data is gathered.
"

Now I have also found that when running a testcase a proposal is made membername for BZUCFG- and BZURES files. These file names have the same name as the ZUnit test case programname (e.g. TDXXT0) but are not listed up in the clean up generated files dialog box and therefor also not deleted on the PDS !

I might be a good idea that these files are also cleaned up by the same process.

More info can be found in the case TS005841916

    Thank you for taking the time to suggest an enhancement to our product. Many of our product enhancements result from feedback from our customers, so your input is always very important to us. Your request is currently inline with our product strategy and we have planned it for a future release of the product. Thank you for your suggestion and continued support.

    A preliminary evaluation of this request indicates that it is consistent with our business strategy. Further evaluation of this RFE is underway.
