The discussion was continued on IRC (#classpath), and here is what I
remember.
We wanted to add at least 2 features to the mauve test-runner.
a) a keyword for all tests that need a DISPLAY
b) a way to 'redirect' graphics output away from the users screen. There is
a standard technology for that, I don't remember its name. A virtual
buffer.
With that in place you have to either explicitly enable GUI tests; or they
would automatically detect and use the virtual framebuffer.
With Robot a screenCapture can be made and then we need a 'simple' framework
to have various visual check() methods on Image objects. Things like
'exact match' / 'tint match' / 'size match' should prove quite usefull.
