In the fact, junit works with kaffe. But junit use swing which prevent
from compiling with free jvm, so junit is gone to contrib. I can write
swing ui wrapper which provide junit.swingui.TestRunner class but use
awt instead of swing. How about this idea? The wrapper class may
provide poor gui than original swing ui but we can put junit into
main.
