While introducing unit tests and regression tests into the FlightGear project has been repeatedly brought up by several long-term contributors [http://www.mail-archive.com/flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg12321.html] and core developers [http://www.mail-archive.com/flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg11825.html], it isn't yet in wide or regular use in FlightGear, even though it is generally understood to be a worthwhile addition to FlightGear in order to do automated testing of individual features, for example when preparing releases [http://www.mail-archive.com/flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg11832.html].
