Tas,

I published a very early demo version here: http://buckminster-
contrib.googlecode.com/files/site_1.0.0.200906052157-1--311_17163268.zip

This version is rather old (around the 3.5 RC timeframe), so I cannot 
guarantee that it's still working. Also, please read 
http://code.google.com/p/buckminster-contrib/wiki/BuckminsterJUnit before 
trying it out. The most important restriction is that it's _not_ capable of 
running plug-in tests. It only supports plain Java JUnit tests. This will 
probably render it pretty much useless for your RCP tests...

Regards,
 Achim
