You see as two different frameworks, I see it as one feature from the user's point of view.
Toolbar icons start in a given size, then can be configured to different sizes (and the whole thing is quite complex, with XMLGUI and KConfig and layering of settings etc.). So the full test includes "what do I start from", which is the default icon size coming from KIconTheme. I don't want to make that test less useful just for the hypothetical situation where one day we might change the default icon size (which sounds rather unlikely).

Yes our autotests aren't all "unit" tests, some of them are more general feature tests. Anything that prevents regressions is good :)
