Hi,

I'm one of the gsoc students. I get to work on adding the blog style course format to moodle. One of the things that I want to start doing from the beginning stages of the development process is unit testing and testing the UI. I've used SimpleTest in the past, and I can test functions using that framework. How do you guys go about testing a course format? Do you use applicaitons like Selenium or Webdriver? I've played around with a few course formats, and I found that they didn't have unit tests included. Do you guys know of examples to follow when writing unit tests and GUI tests for course formats?
