No, of course not. And what Christian told me, it seemed a bit more delicate then just providing TextWriter in Axiom. One of the bigger questions is, how to actually call this AxiomUnit functionality.
For Aldor that is easy, one compiles an executable and runs that. With Axiom that is not possible, because libaxiom cannot (at least not easily) be compiled into a standalone executable.
Now Martin, suppose one test fails misserably, causing memory damage and all bad things. You would like to go on with testing in a clean environment. But that basically says, you have to start Axiom for every single test. That's going to be heavy. But Christian might be better in saying something why AxiomUnit does not yet exist.
