I have little experience with wxPython but, given a little I think there is some interest. We'll have to see if we could spare some resources to work on this a bit. The context where I would like to see this take us is enabling us to easily run fast GUI tests on our Tinderbox machines. Tinderbox is a system developed by the Mozilla project where one central server reports the status of various Tinderbox clients. The clients can run arbitrary tests. In case of Chandler we run various automated unit and integration tests. GUI testing has proven problematic. What is lacking is automated GUI tests, although we have some progress on that as well. More generally, your test framework ported to wxPython should prove even more interesting to the wxPython project itself I would imagine. -- Heikki Toivonen
