Prelude

Tests are inevitable to continuous integration and continuous delivery. Writing tests in ESM JavaScript with top-level async/await can be tricky. Especially in the case where we might want to maintain a sequence of tests. The implementation is more of a concept, than an attempt replace mocha or jest or AVA.

A simple test suite:

const $ = new Suite('Math')

$.it('adds', _ => expect(2+1).equals(3))

await $.it('adds async', async _ => {
  const req = await fetch('http://api.mathjs.org/v4/?expr=1%2B2')
  const result = await req.text()
  expect(result).equals('3')
})

$.done()
