I'd suggest a mix of automated tests (to check, if files could be opened 
/ saved, no crashes in basic functionality ...) and the TCM Test cases 
(to have some manual testing).
Although TCM is focused on localization testing, it has some very 
usefull advantages:
- I can track the stauts of older tests (no need to switch to issuezilla 
for searching)
- I can track the status of current tests of other n/l teams ( I uses to 
have a closer look of all the issues, other teams found)
- I can easily track what tests have been really done, when working with 
a number of people.

Just my ideas,

André
