I'd really like to do this with ruby-breakpoint. Having it automatically 
issue a breakpoint when a Test::Unit test fails. If things go as planned 
you will then be able to use the GUI client to fix things. I'm just not 
yet sure if editing the code (and saving it back to the disk) and 
continuing executing the code just after the breakpoint will be 
possible. I think it might be possible with redo and a trace_func that 
skips over code, but I'm not yet 100% sure.
