Way back, I played with test-driving AWT and Java Swing UIs, starting?

do similar things much more easily.

In general, I tested the GUI with a test API to make sure things were?
wired up correctly. I tested the actual API to make sure the system?
worked correctly.

you can see an example of re-using a test that drove the API creation to?

talk with the system under test.
