Simple but powerful Apps Script Unit Test library

[Bruce Mcpherson]

I haven't posted any new code for a while, as I'm working on something more complex that usual which I'll start writing some articles about in the next few weeks.

In the meantime - here's my unit test library for Apps Script.

There are many test packages for Node (my favorite is [ava](https://github.com/avajs/ava)) and there are also a few for Apps Script but I couldn’t find one that was exactly what I was after, so I’ve released the one I use as a library. Unit testing your code as you go along will make it easier to find errors right away, check results are as expected, and keeping a running repertoire of tests ensures that you don’t break anything when you make changes.

Can you give us a hint as to what you're working on?

Yes - I'm working on a proxy for urlfetch that has caching, rate limiting and bunch of other stuff built in and along with that a library of one liner api access classes. Nearly there.

Hi

That is very generous. 

I had to create my own, and it is not very good, as I do not have the time to invest. Being newish to Javascript (having come from Java), I missed having a decent test framework.

Thank you!

You're welcome. Good luck with Apps Script.
