You can have a also have a look my "port" (actually it's a micture of
guile-lib's (unit-test), which is GOOPS-based and clos-unit) of
CLOS-Unit to a slightly modified tiny-clos:

http://rotty-ipv4.yi.org/cgi-bin/archzoom.cgi/address@hidden/tiny-clos--dev--0--patch-1/scm/unit-test.scm

An usage example is this:

http://rotty-ipv4.yi.org/cgi-bin/archzoom.cgi/address@hidden/tiny-clos--dev--0--patch-1/scm/test-srfi-35.scm

You can download the my whole tiny-clos stuff (assuming you have tla installed):

tla register-archive 
http://people.debian.org/~rotty/arch/address@hidden/2004-main
tla get address@hidden/tiny-clos--dev--0 tinyclos
