We don't need _distributed_ javascript testing tool; we need automated
command-line javascript testing tool which we can integrate into git
testsuite (t/).
* TestSwarm is distributed continuous integration testing tool,
(not necessary for us), and from what I understand it shows results
as a web page (in a browser).
It is written in PHP and uses MySQL.
* jsTestDriver looks like something we could use, as it is run from
command line, and prints results to standard output.
It requires however a web browser attached (this is not an obstacle:
having web browser can be prerequisite for such tests)... and is
written in Java, and as far as I understand doesn't output TAP.
Documentation/CodingGuidelines says:
- Avoid introducing a new dependency into git. This means you
usually should stay away from scripting languages not already
used in the git core command set [...]
So no PHP, and no Java.
