It is reasonable to suggest a universal test app that will assist in the quality assurance of web2py. But I wonder if this will always have 100% test coverage, given that bugs may appear even when writing test cases. This is still a good idea compared to not having a test suite.
However, I think I would have a greater sense of security if I am able to test the apps I have written against the nightly/trunk build.
