Motivation

ITK currently has a 804% code coverage.

This means that about 30,000 lines of code are not tested.

We could significantly increase the code coverage of the toolkit, and in the process reduce the number of hidden bugs, by asking volunteers to adopt particular classes and write additional tests for increasing their code coverage. This could be done at the image of the "Adopt a Bug" program.

Infrastructure

It has been pointed out that the current testing infrastructure of ITK impose a high threshold of effort on contributors of new tests
