That's a very good idea. Generating tests is usually quite repetitive, and
that would be a nice way to ease the process :)
Generating client-server tests is *always* tough. Watchdog does this, and is
not very flexible. It's really hard to put together something which is
reasonably easy to setup. With Slide you can also have a complex repository
as the backend ;)

Sounds very good overall.
