This is almost perfect. Maybe:
Testing can be a slog. AVA helps you get it done.
Maybe we could also add something about AVA making it more fun / faster / less painful to do tests.

I had never heard about the word slog
before. Is there any other more common word we could use?
Writing tests can be boring. AVA helps you get it done.
Testing can be a bore. AVA helps you get it done.
Testing can be a pain. AVA helps you get it done.
Testing can be a drag. AVA helps you get it done.
If not, slog
is fine. Just thought I'd bring it up.

Testing can be a slog. AVA helps you get it done so you can spend more time shipping awesome code and cuddling with your pet.

Isn't it a bit negative? Like the first thing you want me to think about is that testing is painful? I guess what you're going for is empathizing with the user. But I think it could be done with a more positive tone.
AVA makes testing quick and painless

Jest used to have "painless". They're using "delightful" now. Mocha is "Simple, flexible, fun."
Perhaps I'm cynical but to me testing is something I need to get done. I may get some satisfaction out of covering difficult scenarios, but I don't need it to be fun or delightful.

I like "can be a drag," by the way.

How about "chore"?
Testing can be a chore. AVA helps you get it done.
Chores aren't necessarily fun, but they're something everyone knows they have to do.

Something I've been mulling over for a while. @sindresorhus what do you think?
