Why? I was talking about fully automatic tests, not tests like "compile and
open result in the viewer". I understand that there is not too much
functionality that can be tested automatically (hence, server-side), but at
least some basic things can be tested.
Probably, more features can be tested server-side analyzing the result pdf
file using some library (though I don't know the pdf-parsing libraries
sufficiently good to implement it).
