 In order to make current work and future integration as stable and
 seamless as possible, we should cover all code by unit-tests.

 To start with, we could begin with a test suite containing all re-written
 components and move towards full coverage once the integration is stable.

 Unless any team member has prior experience with testing Python/Django
 applications ([[https://nose.readthedocs.org/en/latest/|Nose]] looks
 promising), I suggest we stick with Python's
 [[http://docs.python.org/2/library/unittest.html|unittest]]-module for the
 following reasons:
 a) preferred way of
 [[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/testing/|testing Django]]
 b) part of batteries-included Python - no extra installation necessary,
 which lends itself well to portability

 Measuring code coverage and performing CI could be possible next steps.
