I found that a AskSam is the best program for tracking
bugs and features. And for 99% of all projects that are done with
scripting languages a "bugs.txt" is an appropriate bugtracking tool.

And to be honest i stopped unit tests, because the current libraries
GUI, networking, filesystems do not support them well enough. Hope
that this will improve in the future.
