Maybe jython is better than sliced bread, I don't know, my son sure liked python for a while. However if there are _any_ tests in jython it will provide a barrier to entry to the parts tested... if you break a test because the desired behavior changed, what to you do if you don't know the test language? That's why I'd like some contrived examples before you spend a lot of time implementing something. Please show why this is a good idea and will save us all time and effort.
