We  have extensive tests for Sage, i.e. one and a half hours of CPU
time for the Sage library alone, but that one slipped by the DSage
unit tests as well as the general doctests and we were just as
surprised as you that it didn't get caught. That is why any new patch
merged must be 100% doctested. Additionally we have been actively
adding doctests to existing code and the goal is to have 100% of Sage
functions doctested. Right now we are slightly over 52%.
