Tomoki,
     This summer we are making great progress on unit tests.  For a good 
example I would look at the unit tests for format paragraph from the latest 
repository.  You can still "mock" an object with out the mock module.  For next 
year's GSoC we will evaluate current progress and see what we have left but at 
this point nobody has decided to do another effort for unit tests in IDLE.
