New unit tests are always welcome. Keep in mind that a unit test should take as little time to run as possible. Maintaining the reliability of Squeak is always easier when all tests pass: If you break something, the appearance of a new failure or error is immediately obvious and the cause is more easily found. To that end fixes for failures or errors are extremely valuable. Also, please avoid submitting changes that cause failures or errors themselves.
