Sure. I'll pass this on to Andreas Pakulat who had ported this edition over to KDE 4. Several things had to be adapted iirc.

Note that Squish's main focus is functional GUI testing from the perspective of the user. Unit tests are possible too but are sometimes easier to implement with a complementary unit test framework.

The KDE edition is available for free.
