more tests are always good provided they are maintained. are you
prepared to do that?

there is plenty of things that can go wrong outside of the editors
though. not sure hard it will be to do editor tests.

I am ready to set up a good functional testing infrastructure for Lenya
because I need it anyway for a project. As for maintenance, I also think
that the whole community should show interest, and get involved.
Htmlunit is a really flexible testing framework (java-based), so it
should be possible to have low maintain costs. I shall be able to keep
the suite highly configurable.
I'll keep develop the Lenya testsuite as a standalone (on a public svn),
and if you like it, I would be happy to integrate it into Lenya :-)
Right now, I need some feedback to know if I'm on the right track. It
would be nice if you could have a look at my proto and give me some inputs.
Thanks,
Renaud

agreed. So even if we cannot test the editors properly it still makes a lot
of sense.
