00:08:05 # Life Writing unit tests for shell scripts. Fed up with trial and error with 1-hour long testsuite of pbuilder, I've wrote some functional unit testing framework in bash, and added that to pbuilder. 'testlib.sh' is the framework, test_xxxx.sh scripts are the ones which actually run the tests. Anyone really need something like that? UPDATE: I've received info that TAP has resources on bash as well, and there was a link to Git.
