Anything we can do to automate this should be considered heavily. Manual
tests are valuable where there are 'soft' characteristics that cannot be
machine tested, but they are among the most expensive tests to execute,
both in terms of getting quality (heh) test runs, and in terms of being
able to run them at a reasonable frequency as things change.
