//test

[VorTechnix]

Problem

We need a command for testing things within Minetest worlds. #115 was only found because of an omission in a command during development so it would be nice to have a command to use for showcasing features and attempting to break things on purpose.

Solution

//test list || <testname> [<args>]

Alternatives

A separate mod that would depend on WEA and WEA Core that would allow us to poke and prod at potentially vulnerable components.

This is nice, but we need to be clear that tests done with this are specifically ref the bits you can't do without Minetest.

the Busted automated testing system should be used wherever possible.

[sbrl]

in theory it might be possible to run the core command runner under Busted.

** the reason for using Busted wherever possible is that busted runs on every commit.

Speaking of which, I really need to get around to squashing all the busted errors so our tests pass again.
