Setting Up Emacs for Lisp (SBCL)
again, don't. use fiveam to define a test suite, and run your tests from the repl via `(fiveam:run! 'my-test-suite)`. then, use fiveam-asdf to integrate your test suite into your system definition, and you can compile, load and run your tests with `(asdf:test-system "my-system")`.
