QTestLib has some legacy
- Need to use a class for test functions
- QASSERT and QCOMPARE all over, but little description
- Written with various flavours of QTestLib
- https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-63146

Running tests
- Assuming synchroneous
- QWaitFor, QWaitForWindowActive etc. are used a lot, sometimes perhaps with little understanding?
  - Specific to UI testing
  - Need to handle asynchroneous behaviour better
  - Use (more) mocks?

Testing framework (used for Qt development)
- Stay with QTestLib as is
- Modify QTestLib
- Replace QTestLib with new framework
  - Write from scratch (NIH)
  - Use existing
    - (Can pull reusable components out of QTestLib)
    - Catch (https://github.com/philsquared/Catch)
    - GoogleTest (https://github.com/google/googletest)
    - Cucumbercpp with Qt integration
    - Could we use Squish more for this?
