Not really. I can post pseudo code. But I don't have an example of this 
technique anywhere on my current 'puters...

        def test_GUIForm
                tk = Tk()
                frame = Frame(tk)
                editField = Edit(frame)
                object = UIobject(frame)
                assert editField.get() == "interesting value"
                # mainloop()
                tk.destroy()

That's in Python-style pseudocode using pseudo-Tk, so I hope it carries the 
idea. To see the UI and interact one would uncomment 'mainloop()' and 
comment 'tk.destroy()'. Then to run the test without any UI one reverses 
the commentage.
