I've now tested "elunit" and converted to "ert". So far I prefer "ert"
because its available in ELPA, and the report looks like the ones I'm
used to get with JUnit or something similar.

OTOH none of the packages reported exactly where in my code my errors
where. "ert" was slightly better tough.

Just my €0.02, to get the thread going again. Again, to quote Stefan, we
should just pick something and run with it. I'm sure Emacs will
improve from it.
