Hi Tomoko,

Many of the things that popped up recently could be done with regular tests
- only organized
a little bit differently. For example, I envision adding a parameter
"--test-mode" which would cause Luke to dump some
diagnostic information about the stuff it "sees" in SPIs, etc. - this
information would then be confronted with an existing
expectation. It doesn't even need to start in full GUI mode (which is
always a problem with headless CIs).

Some of these tests will have to be written for the "module mode" as proper
integration tests. It's all coming at us anyway.

More to your question - no, I never found a GUI test framework that would
require way more maintenance than
the application itself...
