So in a way, ORM is supported. Okay, next...it says lot about unit testing. And some I do agree. Some of web2py error reporting is hard to figure out and it doesn't get very specific about exactly where the issue is (not criticizing but constructively put). Having said that there is a test module in the controller. Right? I haven't really played a lot with it. But what's the difference between unit test that you with django and other framework and the test in the controller module?
