A number of points...

There are actually a couple of software packages available which will do automated GUI and command line interface testing using something akin to an expect/send concept. If you google around you would likely find a couple that may be useful. I feel I must bow out of discussing this particular subject as I have worked for one of the companies. And even though they canceled my position in the middle of my relocation trip after serving my probationary period (Oh yes, and they invited me to reapply for the same position), I still respect the non disclosure...

The writing tests before code that exolon is referring to is part of a programming paradigm called eXtreme Programming (XP) <see http://www.extremeprogramming.org/ for details, specifically the section on writing the test code first http://www.extremeprogramming.org/rules/testfirst.html>
