The current legacy_0_7_x branch of qooxdoo now supports a make test-source target (besides the existing make test target). So if you invoke that target in a Skeleton-based application environment, it will create a TestRunner instance for your application. The new thing: With make test-source the test frame can link into the source tree of your application. This allows for test-driven development where you simultaneously develop your source classes, the test classes and run the tests. See the TestRunner wiki page for more information. (Thanks to Istvan Ballok who provided the initial patch for this).
