Unit tests

Gradually coming up to speed on gtest (google c++ unit test framework). Yes, I'm know I'm painfully behind...

And retro-fitting unit tests to existing code isn't much fun. However, it is entertaining for the number of latent bugs it finds! There's always something special about output like:
[----------] 2 tests from Image
[ RUN      ] Image.Empty
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Noting that the unit test in question creates an unparametrised object and inquires as to it's size. :)

Off to fire up a debugger and find out wtf is going on.
