To add on what @aktau said: soon we will have much more robust UI tests.
The current UI tests are hard to write and based on the ASCII output [2] of the commands of the test [1]. By using the Neovim API we will be able to rewrite these tests to look more like automated Sellenium based web app tests and make more fine grained assertions.
