Maybe the comments in the code would be slightly more useful if they said
"Warning: code was only tested by the developer at the time this comment
was written."  Which is to say, given the nature of contributions to this
open source project, and the limited amount of formal organization, PHPLIB
is really only tested by its users, first by the early adopters, and then
by the rest, I guess.

None of the code in the beta releases or actual "final" releases (when we
finally get there) will actually be completely untested.  But it is the
case that some gets more testing than others, and that we do not (yet?)
have a nice set of regression tests.  That would be very nice to have
should anyone feel like creating or donating such a thing.
