faq

• Can I use the module without messing up with global?

  • Yes! see example.test.js

• Where are the setup and teardown functions?

  • In the bloated testrunner ;-) bft encourages you to use AAA - Arrange Act Assert pattern.

• "If bloat-free, then color-free please"

  • NO_COLOR=1 npx bft test.js is your friend.
