Test coverage, measured in terms of lines executed might be pretty
good. However, I haven't seen many tests, for example, for different
dtypes, except for boolean larry. Improving the tests will then
require to come up with good test cases for not so common usage,
rather covering functions or methods that have missing tests.

I think rewriting the existing tests is not of very high priority.

Some of the function that are currently 2d only, might require quite a
bit of work to enable them to handle arbitrary dimension and axis.
