I think it is best to define the capabilities required from such a
test harness. What you say about seems to hint that you only intend
to look at stuff exposed to Lisp. If that is indeed the case, it
could be easier to provide, but many aspects of the display engine
cannot be tested this way, since only a small fraction of that is
exposed to Lisp.
