let me re-phrase to have a more concise question: did anyone
actually base their past choice of a testing tool on its license?  

My impression so far was: nobody did.  And i haven't heart anything 
to the contrary yet.  Makes sense, i guess, from a practical point 
of view as (so far) running a test tool is separated from the 
actual distribution and deployment of the code under test.  

cheers,
