Since someone (finally!) wrote a game for U, I hacked up a quick framework which allows easy testing.
Here's an example of it in use with the connect4 script:
newserv@moo:~/test$ lua
Lua 5.1.2 Copyright (C) 1994-2007 Lua.org, PUC-Rio
> require "testframework"
> require "connect4"
system: game registered: connect4
> startgame("connect4")
system: game lobby initiated: connect4/1
system: new player (connect4/1): 1
system: new player (connect4/1): 2
system: game commencing: connect4/1
