To be honest, I'm not entirely sure that I could come up with a
really convincing argument for TAP for an audience using JUnit,

XUnit allows heirarchical grouping, TAP does not. DUnit (Delphi's
XUnit) comes with a GUI that shows you a tree of tests/groups,

Do we have a convincing argument? Maybe I'm just being overly
pessimistic today :-)
