As express by others, please don't !
IMHO, ONE language/framework is all what we need. Having a set of
unrelated materials will bring nightmares and something hard, not to say
impossible, to maintain/understand.
So we should keep it as-is, or switch to something new. But trying to
please every-one is not the right way to go.
Even if the existing framework looks hard to me, I still think that it
is a good option. Others have been able to extend the base, so it is
possible :)

One idea is that we setup, using the existing perl test framework, a sort of "catch
all" test, where the framework simply runs all scripts from a subdir via system()
(or whatever), and the reports success or failure. Those scripts could be written in
anything. This would mean that people could add tests w/o knowing any Perl at all. It
would require, however, some sort of process since those scripts themselves would need to
be universal enough that all testers can run them.
I may give that a whirl... I have some nodejs scripts that test websockets and I may see
how/if I can "wrap" them within the test framework.
