I would add testthat and tinytest to the list and remove RUnit or say it is not recommended.
testthat is by far the most popular package for R (actually the example of asserting an equality below is done with testthat) and is actively developed. tinytest is also being actively developed whereas RUnit's last release is more than a year old, which triggered some packages to stop using it (i.e. RcppArmadillo).
I was thinking on adding a simple PR for this alone, but I don't want to step on your toes nor difficult this amazing refactoring, so I am fine with you adding the changes directly here if it makes your life easier.

Thanks @OriolAbril!
I think this pull request is a little stale (@rosiehigman has a new job!) so I'm not sure who is going to pick this up, so if you wanted to do a little PR then please go for it, but otherwise just leave this comment here so someone can find it again in the future!
@annakrystalli - just tagging you in case you have strong opinions about R testing (I don't know anything John Snow!) @OriolAbril's reasoning makes total sense to me 😄
