Seems like this is a case where you should be able to find unit testing in some other open source project, rather than writing them from scratch. Mozilla, Apache Harmony, Perl, Webkit, Python, should all have a bunch of unit testing code for their regular expression features.
In fact, there are a couple of open-source libraries for regex stuff, I'm sure it would better to simply use the code of one of those other projects, rather than maintaining our own. Webkit/Mozilla should have excellent engines inside their JavaScript modules written in C++ that we could copy. And they would have seen an enormous amount of testing.
