We had a conversation a while back about the difficulty of unit
testing in the graphical domain, since often errors are only apparent
when people look at the graphs.

I read about this today, it's a mech turk type proposal for pushing

Might be a possibility or an inspiration for regression testing on
ggplot2 etc.

Sounds like a neat idea. Thanks for the pointer!
