 Apologies if this is a duplicate, I couldn't find any.

 The AtomPub API is hideously under-tested. Since it's a part of WordPress
 that doesn't get touched often, it's also one of the most crucial
 components that needs testing.

 I'm working on [https://github.com/rmccue/Gorilla a test runner called
 Gorilla], which is designed as a replacement for the APE (Atom Protocol
 Exerciser). This will have a port of all the APE unit tests to PHP, and
 I'm also going to start writing some new ones for all the new APIs that
 are being added in #18430, #18431, #18432 and #18433.

 These are specifically designed to be able to be independent of Gorilla,
 so that it will be easy to bring into a normal PHPUnit test suite, and
 hopefully will be able to run as part of the normal WordPress unit test
 suite. (Although they'll still need some components of Gorilla to work)

 (This is filed under Unit Tests, but AtomPub might be a better component)
