With objects that are relatively standalone, you can instantiate them 
easily and plug them into a testing framework. The more interdependent 
things are, the harder it is.

I think a concrete example of what you're suggesting would help a lot. 
Pick one small area, show the changes needed, and how you would use the 
testing setup.
