What is the current state of Unit testing support in the R language
- by PaulHurleyuk
R is a statistics programming language. Part of R is the use of Packages, which themselves are written in the R language. Programming best practice includes the use of unit-testing to test the functions within these packages while they are being written and when they are used.
I am aware of a few packages for unit testing within R, these being
RUnit
Svunit
Testthat
I'm interested to know;
Are there any other packages out there ?
Given peoples experience, do these packages excel at different things ?
What's the current state of the art in unit testing for R ?
