|
<p>You can be sure that if a language brings a testing framework -- even minimal |
|
-- in its standard library, the ecosystem around it will have better tests |
|
than a language that doesn't carry a testing framework, no matter how good the |
|
external testing frameworks for the language are.</p> |
|
<span id="continue-reading"></span> |
|
<p>The reason is kinda obvious on this one: When the language itself brings a |
|
testing framework, it reduces the friction for people to start writing tests, |
|
and that includes the authors of the language itself and the community.</p> |
|
<p>Sure, better frameworks may come along, and languages that don't have a |
|
testing framework in their standard library may have options with better |
|
support and easier access but, again, when they are there from the start, the |
|
start is better and the final result is better.</p> |
