I'm looking for some tools for testing vim scripts. Either vim scripts that
do unit/functional testing, or
classes for some other library (eg Python's unittest module) that make it convenient to
run vim with parameters that cause it to do some tests on its environment, and
determine from the output whether or not a given test passed.
I'm aware of a couple of vim scripts that do unit testing, but they're sort of vaguely documented and may or may not actually be useful:
vim-unit:
purports "To provide vim scripts with a simple unit testing framework and tools"
first and only version (v0.1) was released in 2004
documentation doesn't mention whether or not it works reliably, other than to state that it is "fare [sic] from finished".
unit-test.vim:
This one also seems pretty experimental, and may not be particularly reliable.
May have been abandoned or back-shelved: last commit was in 2009-11 ( 6 months ago)
No tagged revisions have been created (ie no releases)
So information from people who are using one of those two existent modules, and/or links to other, more clearly usable, options, are very welcome.
