somewhat off-topic to the original question:

Can :static-file be used for files part of unit tests? Such as unit tests for log-parsers.

My understanding is that :static-file components are used to specify any non-lisp file dependencies of the system. The lisp parts of the unit tests should use :file declarations. I have used them for things like, css, graphics, test fixtures, templates etc, pretty much any file that I know the system depends on, that aren't common lisp files.
