llvm (and lld) also have plenty of tests ending in .yaml. Since this is a yaml file, and plenty of editors have syntax highlighting  for yaml, it seems a pitty not to take advantage of that.


================
Comment at: lit/Modules/compressed-sections.yaml:20
+  - Name:            .bogus
+# CHECK-NOT: .bogus
+    Type:            SHT_PROGBITS

Each successfully matching `CHECK` line will update an internal position and subsequent checks will only start from that position, so here you're only checking that after `.bogus` does not occur after `.hello_elf`, but this test would pass if `.bogus` occurred before `.hello_elf`.  But putting the `CHECK-NOT` first, both will fail  (this is also a good reason not to intersperse the check lines).
Putting CHECK-NOT first will just make sure that .bogus does not appear *before* the first CHECK match. I put it last as it this is the place it is likely to be if it did we did end up outputting it, but if we want to be safe, I guess we have two options:
- put it both at the front *and* back
- have two FileCheck invocations
I chose the latter.
