There are quite a number of unit test frameworks available for Lisp,
but I know of no really good comparison between them.  I would like to
suggest this as an excellent candidate for the next Consumer Report.

Cliki has some discussion of different tools to start with:
http://www.cliki.net/Test%20Framework

Things that would be interesting to know include:

a) platforms supported (CMUCL, SBCL, Clisp, etc.)

b) available features 

c) license

d) documentation quality - subjective but important

Probably other stuff.  One question I have wondered about before is how
fundamentally different these tools really are - could one core
framework which supports various styles of test definition unify all
these tools into one universal unit test package? 

Cheers,
CY
