There are a few attempts at carefully testing POSIX shells: - POSIX - Smoosh [disclaimer: I'm the author] - Oil - Yash - Bash None of these are a perfect fit for testing any of dash's particular behaviors (e.g., dash treats non-lexical control differently from bash). I would be _very_ interested in helping to build a test suite for POSIX shells in general; I would be happy to also build a test suite for dash in particular. Not only would such a test suite help identify regressions in dash, it would also serve to document dash-specific choices for unspecified and undefined behavior.
