We need a test suite, tout de suite!

E.g. http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9178 , a feature 
stopped working recently

Or   http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9129 , the proposed 
fix for this changes the way attributes with [[wiki links]] display, but 
we have no tests for how attributes with wiki markup punctuation 
currently work.

I mean to look at 
http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/phase3/tests/ and 
http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/phase3/t/ for ideas we 
can use.  But it may be impossible to run SMW files one-by-one outside 
MediaWiki due to all the interdependencies.

Meanwhile I think we should create some pages on ontoworld.org named 
Unit tests/relations, Unit tests/dates, Unit tests/inline queries, etc.
in [[Category:Unit tests]], and start filling them with
   'wiki text'  'should result in xxx'
   'wiki text2'  'should result in yyy'
etc.  There are existing test relations and test attributes in 
[[Category::Testpage]] we can use.
