If it does, I assume that this could be changed, and perhaps should be.
Having a non-GUI option for running test suites seems to be common practice.

I have been using Overeasy a lot lately:

Overeasy was originally done as a kind of `position paper' on some
features I'd like to see in a standard Racket test engine. There are
some rough spots in the Overeasy interface that I've found as recently
as last week, but overall it's done almost everything I've needed (with
exception of Web testing for which JMeter is better suited). I also
intend for Overeasy to provide a migration path to whatever becomes the
be-all-end-all Racket test engine, once I finish refining the test
contexts (which is how I rationalize temporarily contributing to the
fragmentation of Racket test engines).
BTW, two Overeasy things that turn out to be convenient, but that I
don't think the documentation for current version mentions: (1) using
nested "test-section" in loops, to cover different combinations of
conditions; (2) specifying "#:exn" with a regexp literal rather than a
procedure.
