@neillm Sorry, I don't quite follow you. I didn't talk about electrum test which you can run. At first, what kind of test data do you need? I guess you need some input (like entropy) and output (like seed). Next you would pass the provided input to your libbitcoin implementation and compare your ouput with the provided seed, right? I said indirectly, currently you cannot get the mentioned input/output from electrum test envionment because electrum has a strong dependency. In other words, there isn't a function where you could pass entropy input and get output (seed). What can be done? a) To force the electrum devs to change their architecture to break away from the dependency and make the design more unit test friendly. b). Make the electrum code temporary more unit test friendly and prepare the input yourself. The option b) was the one I suggested. I only looked superficially at the electum's implementation, so I can be wrong. If yes, please correct me :).
