Wow....I would love to have a face to face with my former Dept. Head at my alma-matter as he was anal about CLEANROOM DESIGN and I always felt he needed to be open to more pragmatic methods of testing....this sounds like it's it.
Do you have a beta program? I'm very interested; especially if I can test Flex2 IDE, Flex2 Enterprise Services with integration via J2EE and RemoteObject and utilize your product.
Great Stuff! I feel a new upswing in the technology sector for independent and innovative developers and I credit Macromedia for being a big part of this -- And Apple (thank God for the iPod and Music Production Systems driving this; ie. purchase of Emagic's Logic Pro).

Hey Robert,
Here's a great article on Test-Driven Development:
http://junit.sourceforge.net/doc/testinfected/testing.htm
Essentially, AsUnit 3.x is built directly from the JUnit source code. It is a pure ActionScript framework that allows you to construct test fixtures for your applications. It lets you build each encapsulated element of an application, test it, gaurantee it's functionality and then through continuous integration, grow your application over time with confidence. If at any point, you break some long-forgotten entity, your test fixture will notify you immediately with exactly what is broken and why it broke. If you later expose issues (bugs) that went originally untested, you can develop a new test that exposes the behavior, then fix it and be assured that it won't be reintroduced.
This is an alternative approach to what's known as "Waterfall" development, and without a clean unit test framework, it's very difficult to implement...
Thanks for asking!
