I don't see my proposal as avoiding testnig.  In my proposal
the each library runs all its tests.  When merged into release
ALL the tests are run there by detected any unintentional
and/or unannounced / unaddressed interface changes.  All the tests being
run now are run under my proposal.  Its just that the testing
procedure more effectively uses the available resources
and better serves developers.
