That's actually one of the things that bothered me in the Emacs REPL
world: working in the REPL was separate from working in my production
source and my test source. It's one of the things that has me really
hooked on LightTable. I have my source and test namespaces both open.
I have them both connected to a "REPL". I can evaluate any code, in
place, in either file. If I grow some code in the source file, I can
put (defn some-name [args]) in front of it and M-) slurps it into a
function - done! If I grow some code in the test file, I can put
(expect result-value) in front of it and M-) slurps it into a test -
done!

Since I moved to LightTable, I've found myself doing even more
REPL-Driven-Development than before because it's so much easier to
turn the experiments into code - or tests - in place.
