Since I don't exactly know what test frameworks are, even after reading about 
them for the
past few years, I'm going to ask some risky questions. This is not a flame 
thrower attempt
at the test framework advocates, I'm just trying to understand what exactly 
they do, from a
"newbie to test frameworks" perspective.

Do test frameworks
 -cause you to spend lots of time writing test frameworks instead of program 
code?
 -even apply to languages with compilers and strong typing?
 -cause you to write your programs to conform to the test framework, instead of 
the program
framework?
 -have any actual statistics of success?
 -have popularity statistics that prove they are popular (in the Delphi 
community) as stated
in the article?
 -have any real world examples of how they helped personX fix problemY in 
significantly less
time?

Hoping the answers are no, yes, no yes, yes, yes.
