Well right now our junit tests report 100% success rate. I verified 'all' the samples a few weeks back and fixed all the issues I encountered. Some of the problems were corrected later by Ruwan as well, so I think at the moment all the samples are working. I personally don't think there's a requirement for an 'extensive' round of testing. IMO some regressions tests should be good enough.
