Dear rgmerk Finally understood the use for combinatorics :) https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash/commit/da1d1b9a47939ad08ac645024f448a4820103ad8#diff-1625b4f2db9166674389d58f2f585131R497 SRFI-64 is now firmly established as the testing framework to be used in Gnucash from now on. I think transaction.scm and invoice.scm now have about 90% code coverage. I'll add more as time goes on... Chris
