My apologies if this is a really naive question, I don't really do this kind of low level systems programming. Do most projects of this sort not have tests, or are they just hard enough that they don't really pay off?
As for the xlib stuff, I can't really write tests for that. But I will write a more extensive test suite for the core components, especially the ones in src/core.rs
For the methods in window_manager.rs, they often depend on the window system, but that shouldn't be a problem as I could simply insert a dummy interface.
Tests will follow. Last weeks were just filled with thesis and preparations for my last exam. So I used the coding for relaxation and kinda omitted the tests. I know, I know...behaviour.

I do that by wrapping the C APIs into traits. I have some macros that generate both the proper implementations with ffi calls and mock implementations. Then I can write extensive tests for the high level binding's low level behavior using properly set up mocks.
