Some things can still be done, like testing the DATAFILE access
routines, utf-8 routines, etc. Graphics can be tested by blitting
stuff around, drawing, etc, then comparing the results to an
existing image. For sound, I don't have any solution, I'm afraid.
While I agree with you about not being easy to do all, I think a
minimal amount of tests could cater for a large enough part of
the library to be useful. Not that I want to write it, of course ;)
