Summary: Unit Test Framework for UI
Initial Comment:
I believe that the recent bugs with the undo button on the toolbar, window resizing for small screens, and menu organization show that we need a unit testing framework for the DrJava GUI. There is currently no test suite for any aspect of the actual display or user interaction - only the underlying models. It is possible to horribly disable the program (by neglecting to show the MainFrame, for example) and still pass the current unit tests. Unfortunately, this process is inherantly graphical, so it would be difficult or impossible to run meaningful tests without windowing support. It might be possible to use 1.4's headless AWT support and/or Robot for some tests, but I doubt that this would be a complete solution. Some effort should be put into covering this gaping (and quite visible) hole in our testing.
