This is a playground, where you can do stuff without worrying you might
	inadvertently break something that matters

Output goes to the unit test log.

No mechanism for input is available.  You generally do not need it 
	because you	hard code the testing data, and detect errors with
	asserts, rather than exceptions	but, of course, it can post a
	dialog using postmessage, and the dialog can then call anything.  

Uncaught exceptions result in unit test failure, and an error message
	at the end of the unit test, but not in an error message in the
	main program UI.

If using postmessage, execution of the code waits for the dialog to
	return, data from the dialog can be used in the testbed code, and 
	uncaught exceptions in the dialog will result unit test failure
	and be reported in the unit test log.

If using queumessage, the testbed code will complete while the dialog
	is waiting, data cannot be returned for use in the testbed code,
	and uncaught exceptions will appear in the main UI.
