We wrote a custom unit test execution system that recursively reads all the directories, finds all the unit test harnesses, executes each one, and creates a report of all failures and successes. It even flags files that don't have a unit test. The app also executes any CFUnit test harnesses for CFCs. One can choose to execute a custom set of tests or the entire test suite. Proof that everything passed is required before deployment as part of our configuration management process. It's not perfect but it goes a very long way toward making sure there are no errors in the code.
