Perhaps QA people will be interested in this.  Note that Michael asks
for replies on the dev list.

> Hi guys,

>       The ESC are interested in improving unit (and other automated) testing
> and are interested in concrete ideas for implementing new automated
> tests to prevent regressions. We hope to turn this into a proposal for
> the Board, which if approved -could- turn into a tender to fund more
> work in this area. Having said that writing unit tests is every
> developers' responsibility where feasible - so this ask focuses on new
> infrastructure.

> there places where we should work to create infrastructure ?

>       Is there a large area of code that is completely un-tested or
> under-tested that you'd love us to invest in making test-able ?
> 
>       Is there a test that currently only runs in an obscure setup /
> corner-case that we can invest in standardizing and making more easy to
