Well, until now, my testing has been to actually use gnucash, look for
problems, and look for error messages in the gnucash.trace file. This wasn't
very exhaustive, though. Now, I'm working at ensuring that the full range of
legal cases is handled properly (create session with examples of legal cases,
save, load and compare with original). It won't handle catching illegal cases,
though, but I want to test those in the near future.
I'll finish the core test this week, and move onto the business objects next.
Any chance you'd like to create a XML gnucash file with test case business
objects for me to use?
Phil

Ah, fair enough. Yes, the KVPs can store doubles. I did sorta remember
that. ;)

Excellent! Yes, testing is always useful. :-D
