Complete example TestIupRobot can be called from the console (and from the appropriate directory as lua test.lua TestIupRobot.
local test = require('btd.lua.testapi')
local testIup = require('btd.lua.testiup')
local IupRobot = require('btd.lua.iuprobot')
local GuiSequencer = require('btd.lua.guisequencer')

local robot = IupRobot(0.02,0.1)    -- 20 ms update interval and 100 ms event queue wait time
robot.demo = true                   -- visual feedback on

TestIupRobot = {}

-- only allow one instance of IUP at any one time
-- (or mark required test methods individually, see unit testing)
TestIupRobot.Serial = true

-- (optional) abort test class if one (serialised) test method fails
TestIupRobot.Abort = true

function TestIupRobot:setUp()
  dofile('iupbutton.wlua')
end

function TestIupRobot:test_click()
  local seq = GuiSequencer()
