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.
