Calva, generative testing, and a good day at the keyboard
Matching Socks
Spurred by tweets from Stuart Halloway, I tried out "test.check", by following the helpful Guide on clojure.org.!
To leave no stone unturned, and avoid tainting my test.check results with Emacs, I also took the opportunity to test-drive VS Code (in Ubuntu) and the Calva plugin!
It's great stuff, all of it! The "Orchard" that Batsov cultivated really shines in Calva. Especially the whatchamacallits that suggest completions. I am super delighted not to trip over them in Emacs, but in Calva I might not look for how to turn them off. Well done.
Calva also features a workmanlike Paredit! I had been apprehensive about checking into a sanitarium after using two different Paredit implementations, but now that I have tried it, it's not so bad!
And, propellers to Clojurists Together, which noticed the merits and has helped countless folks support some of this work from the sidelines!
Looking forward to more of the same, and better and better,
