There's a page on the EmacsWiki describing schemes for unit/regression
testing in emacs lisp:

http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/UnitTesting

Perhaps we could pick up one of these?  I haven't evaluated any of them.

In response to Ben Alexander's question, yes, sometimes the screen
output is what you care about, but a big advantage of emacs is that the
screen output is a big array of text, so we could check it (it's a lot
worse, if it's just a bit map...).  Sure, we can't always do that, but I
think in many cases we could just grab up a buffer's contents and
compare it against a "right answer."

best,
