Thank you for sharing. While I find nothing in it that would cause me
to choose it over my existing preferences of Jasmine and Mocha, I applaud
you for creating one. I think it's a very useful rite of passage to
build a unit test framework in Javascript. There are so many reasonable
choices one can make; the code is not all that difficult, but it's also
not something that is done in an hour or two; it is clearly useful
very quickly. In short, it's a nice exercise in both API and
implementation, and one that generates something useful.

Here's a challenge for you: how would you add to your library the ability
to test asynchronous calls? These often change a library drastically.
Would they do so to yours?

Congratulations on your library, and best of luck!
