I meant unit tests, not system-level/integration tests :) Aside from the
user-interaction issues, unit tests are a lot more predictable and
faster. Plus I can run them from my favourite ide.

I haven't had much luck recently in running the javaws tests recently
either. Running 'make run-netx-dist-tests' always seems to hang for some
reason.
