Version 1.4.3 of R package `tinytest` is on its way to CRAN and should be available for all platforms in a few days.

1.4.3 follows after 1.4.1 and is mostly a bug fix release.

The package is currently used by nearly 400 R packages for automated testing.

tinytest: Lightweight and Feature Complete Unit Testing Framework

Provides a lightweight (zero-dependency) and easy to use unit testing framework. Main features: install tests with the package. Test results are treated as data that can be stored and manipulated. Test files are R scripts interspersed with test commands, that can be programmed over. Fully automated build-install-test sequence for packages. Skip tests when not run locally (e.g. on CRAN). Flexible and configurable output printing. Compare computed output with output stored with the package. Run tests in parallel. Extensible by other packages. Report side effects.

@markvanderloo Nice! My new package teenytinytest hits CRAN soon, it has one function: teenytinytest=function(...){message("All tests pass")} and I use it for all my #rstats code #10x #productivityhack

@geospacedman I do hope that it is AI-generated and has a AI-generated hex sticker?

teenytest does give extremely accurate test results, since every statement about elements in the empty test set is true 😀

@markvanderloo I think I've just written HAL9000's test suite.

@geospacedman I propose "vibetest" as packagename. Very modern of you.
