Done. New thread there: https://goo.gl/17hsAa

Yes, though in this case tests would merely check that the code can be sourced 
without error. I was thinking more of looking for unstated dependencies in code 
effectively used by the package, though indirectly. I guess it is only relevant 
if distributing shiny apps alongisde packages becomes common practice. I am not 
sure how trendy it is yet, but wouldn't be surprised to see it become 
increasingly frequent.
