Add regression testing

Description

Automated functionality testing helps catch bugs earlier (giving better feedback to developers) and reduces load on testers.
Adding regression tests for bugs resolved during the 0.86 development phase would be a useful starting point.
Writing tests is tedious work nobody wants to do, so it's not realistic to expect someone to come up with a set of tests for all components. Rather the load should be spread - that's why I'm proposing to add regression tests for newly fixed bugs, as that can be done by those fixing the bugs.

A test suite will need to be added and that's what this bug is actually about (everything else are process decisions and probably do not belong in the bug tracker). :)
