[Nautilus-list] High level outline of planned client testing. Tell us what's missing, please. ;)

[Eli Goldberg <eli eazel com>]

Hey, there ---

    This is a quick high-level outline that Victor and I threw together,
covering what I'll probably be writing for Nautilus test cases (client
only).

    There are probably lots of omissions, especially since it's biased
towards visible functionality; if anyone can suggest coverage areas that
are omitted or other holes, it would greatly help ensure competent test
coverage.

    Thanks,

    Eli
