Laura

laura is an intentionally simple test runner framework.

Really there is very little "framework" with less than 100 LOC, but since there is a smidge of lock-in if you use it, we shall call it a framework.

laura runs every test in a new process to help guarantee there is no interaction between tests. Processes are not re-used once a test has completed.

To define a test:

const assert = require('assert');

test('thing() returns "foo"', () => {
  assert(thing(), 'foo');
});

To run tests:

$ yarn laura **.test.js
Passed examples/bar.test.js :: one in 0ms
Passed examples/bar.test.js :: two in 0ms
Passed examples/bar.test.js :: three in 0ms
Passed examples/foo.test.js :: one in 0ms
Passed examples/foo.test.js :: three in 0ms
Failed examples/foo.test.js :: two in 13ms
AssertionError [ERR_ASSERTION]: The expression evaluated to a falsy value:

  assert(false)
