Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Painless CLI integration testing
If we talk about the first approach, the following approaches will be useful: Nodejs Child Process: write to stdin from an already initialised process, RobotJS. It makes sense to note here that the approaches above are rather for e2e testing than integration.

What language next?
If you want to interact with the OS, and move the mouse, you'll likely want to write JS that targets the NodeJS platform. With a quick google search I found RobotJS which you can use with Node to automate the mouse (amongst other things). If it's a browser you want to automate, look into selenium-webdriver.

I recently released nut.js v3.0.0, a Node.js desktop automation framework, in line with a brand new OCR plugin and improved image search
Then there’s obviously https://github.com/robot/robot-js and https://github.com/octalmage/robotjs, but both of these frameworks are abandoned.

How are custom Iterables useful in JS? What are some common usecases of thing that can't be done easier any other way?
That said, you're in luck as I can give you a specific use case from the library I'm working on. It's a desktop automation library (something like RobotJS or Nut.js). I won't use the exact code, but a simplified version as an example.

Engaging and interesting decks are getting obscenely expensive
So what u need to do is go to a mercs bounty and afk inside it for 29 mins, then finish the fight by beating it and repeat. U will get more than 400 xp per hour with 20% boost (i think around 430? smth like that). If u go over 30 mins in the fight, u will get 0 xp so don't. Put the script on a loop and leave ur pc overnight, set hs fps to like 5 or smth from the config file (targetframerate), so ur pc uses little resources (the more gpu/cpu used the more wattage the higher the electricity bill, tho obviously it's still very worth it but the less the bill is the better). Level 100 to 400 is 300 * 1500 xp = 450 000 xp. With 10 hrs of ur pc working during the night, that is let's say 4100 xp per day, so it will take u 110 days to get from level 100 to 400. If u have work, leaving the pc on for let's say 16 hours a day (8 while u sleep and 8 while u work) will get u 7560 xp per day, getting u from 100 to level 400 in just 60 days (2 months). Make sure ur cpu gpu etc. are put on power-saving mode and turn off ur monitor (preferably even disconnect it from the power cable). Now for the script u wanna use, based on this https://thenewstack.io/which-programming-languages-use-the-least-electricity/ the best one would be C, personally i use Javascript because it's what i know and it's very easy to write and it's still 4.45 which is not that far from 1, considering it's just very simple mouse movement and a for loop and not some complex algorithm problems like in the article, it won't make much of a difference anyway, tho it might if u use python since 75.88 is a lot. So to do it with JS, u can use Node js with Robot js https://github.com/octalmage/robotjs

What's the alternative of Authotkey ?
Autohotkey is also a scripting language. If you want parity there, there's robotJS, pynput, and xdotool (though this one won't work on some future version of mint when a piece of tech it relies on gets upgraded).
- Need help with a simple macro program
-
I built some custom macro buttons using an Arduino Micro
I use the Johnny-Five JS library to connect to the board http://johnny-five.io/ and use RobotJS https://www.npmjs.com/package/robotjs to map the buttons on the board to keyboard buttons. Currently I just have it set up to map to audio buttons so I can prev/next/pause/play Spotify/Youtube or turn the OS volume up.

Painless CLI integration testing
We use Jest Framework for testing. Jest is not a dogma, and, of course, in its place can be any other test runner, such as Mocha or Ava. Let's focus on tests. I'll provide a short example because I don’t want to waste your time. You can find the full version here. It's crucial to read the comments in the code below. Let's go!

Speeding up the JavaScript ecosystem – The barrel file debacle
> In the popular jest test runner, each test file is executed in its own child process.
Is that confirmed?
I've been following this issue:
https://github.com/jestjs/jest/issues/6957
And what Jest actually does is still kind of muddy.
In contrast to that, other test runners like AVA have a clear description what happens when:

What Tools Are You Using to Test Your Code?
I've been looking at using japa or ava for web server testing but was curious what others were using and why.

[2023-07-14] Razuberi Development Update
Continued work on the test suite. Implementing AVA, with snapshotting. Making a lot of effort to have the snapshot directory structure match the test262 test directory structure by generating AVA test files.
-
Ask HN: What's your favorite software testing framework and why?
You might want to give ava a spin:
https://github.com/avajs/ava/
It has a TAP reporter, but more importantly, as opposed to the more popular solutions, like Jest, the way it achieves parallelism is explained in the docs and won't change anytime soon, thus preventing wonky, hard to debug errors which occur when this part is abstracted away.

The new React's documentation
I switched to ava for that reason and have been very happy with it. But vitest looks nice, too. Thanks for the pointer.

Last but not least important are ava, uvu and tape; they are a really light and fast test runners.

Unit testing: What to use, and how?
I've had some good experiences with Ava + Sinon. I've personally disliked Jest because it seemed to do some weird trickery in the background that prevented me from using ES modules.

Tech stack discussion
Ava for a simpler environment than Jest, which I usually use. I need to check how to mock ESM with it, though.
