Description : tiny, async-first testing library for Node.js
Manten is designed for speed with minimal overheadâjust 2.3 kB and zero
dependencies beyond Jest's assertion library. Tests run immediately as
plain JavaScript with native async/await flow control, giving you full
control over concurrency without the complexity of a test runner.
.
Features:
.
* Tiny: 2.3 kB minified
* Fast: No test discovery overhead, tests run as plain Node.js scripts
* Async-first: Native async/await for sequential or concurrent execution
* Zero config: No test runner, no transformsâjust Node.js
* Full control: Manage async flow exactly how you want
* Strongly typed: Full TypeScript support
* Snapshot testing: Built-in snapshot support with automatic serialization
.
Node.js is an event-based server-side JavaScript engine.
Needed as a test dep for node-resolve-pkg-maps
I plan to maintain this as part of the JS team in Debian.
