i couldn't agree more. google needs to make it easier for us to do proper testing on our app engine apps. i found another solution to represent the client for functional testing. using selenium RC. however i'm running into an annoying timeout since i'm using gaeunit as the test runner. if it's not one thing it's another. still working on it. i'll let you know how it goes.
