Indeed, this is a much better way than to fail the test case.

I'm thinking this is best done in test_setup(), since it's related to 
the setup. In case other test cases are added that required a different 
setup, there may be no minimum lcore requirement.

You will get multiple (four, for the moment) print-outs though, in case 
you run with fewer than 4 lcores.

I'll also make sure I skip (and not fail) the tests in case the DSW 
event device is not included in the build.
