I couldn't agree more! You should find that there is some test code in the
CVS tree (src/com/techquila/topicmap/test) which is written using JUnit. But
this test code is by no means exhaustive.

I have been working recently on making that test code idependant of which
back-end is in use (the memory package or the ozone one) and I don't think I
have quite checked in all my changes yet. I'll have a look and check in
anything that needs to be.

If you would like to contribute test cases, then the only thing I would ask
is that you write them using the JUnit framework (www.junit.org).

Cheers,

Kal
