In 2020, we added support for synchronous replication and MVCC. We had to test this functionality, so we decided to write some tests powered by Jepsen framework. We check consistency by analyzing the transaction history. But the story about testing with Jepsen is big enough for a separate article, so we'll talk about it next time.

The Tarantool ecosystem is constantly growing. Today it already has a lot of connectors for popular programming languages (Golang, Python, Java, etc.), extension modules for building applications with blocks (vshard, queue, etc.), and frameworks that speed up the development process (Cartridge and Luatest).

For testing Lua projects, we have a different framework, luatest. This is originally a fork of another good framework, luaunit. Project forking provided tighter integration with Tarantool (e.g., we added specific fixtures). It also allowed us to implement many new features regardless of the luaunit development: integration with luacov, XFail status support, etc.
