  • Ask HN: Good language-agnostic test suites?

    The Go compiler has a really interesting, black box testing tool called "testscript"

    You can find an extracted, installable version here: https://github.com/rogpeppe/go-internal/tree/master/cmd/test...

    For test cases, I would look to libraries in any language that has them in an easy to copy format

    No idea if the technique was original, it’s been too long, but I wrote about it on the Cloudflare blog in 2016. https://blog.cloudflare.com/go-coverage-with-external-tests/

    Anyway, very happy to see the team ship first class support for it. It immediately made coverage support in testscript much more natural, too. https://github.com/rogpeppe/go-internal/pull/201

    Thank you very much to Russ Cox for the original concept of testscript, to Roger Peppe for maintaining go-internal, and the whole Go team for their work on Go and its excellent tooling. Your work and efforts are truly appreciated!
