You know, if some day all the test libs / frameworks can be run, test
results exploited, etc. through the same abstraction, this will
greatly ease the pain of tools developers !

I would better write once the integration between Eclipse way of
running and displaying tests, than once per library !

So ... looking forward to see this globally adopted :-)
