I have used WebUnit very successfully for high level tests. (http://mechanicalcat.net/tech/webunit)
I haven't been able to figure out how to unit-test pages since anything that extends Page requires the AppServer to be running. Perhaps part of the dependency can be eliminated with a mock HTTPTransaction, but I'm not sure.
I think it would be good to organize a working group of people willing to work on tests. I know several people including myself have volunteered to work on the release, but not to lead it themselves citing inexperience. However I have not been "called to service" yet. A difficulty with volunteering to do a release is to know if I've made a mistake in the release process. Hence the need for tests. Once we have a group together, we can pick a few priorities in the tests, and settle anything needed to let people get to work individually, such as how our tests will fit into the larger set of test cases.

Thanks for the reply, Winston. I will add your commentary and take a look at WebUnit when I get the chance.
I am open to discussing how a "release team" might be organized and operate. Feel free to send me a note off-list if you wish.
