Actually after more digging it seems that unit testing libraries
in D doesn't work.
It seems pretty bad that in 2012 with unit testing a huge part of
the software development process and D describing itself as a
language with unit testing built in, this bug report / feature
request hasn't been addressed:
http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=4669
Is there any update on the status of this enhancement? Is there a
recommended workaround to unit test a D library?
Cheers,
Chris

Hey all,
I'm sure that this is a rather daft question but I've tried to
search the d.learn mailing list and must have missed a question
about it.
I've read the unit testing documentation on dlang.org and I
know that `unittest { /* some code */ }` blocks are compiled
into the executable and executed after static initialization
and before the main() function is called. This makes sense in
an application but how does this apply to a library?
For example, writing a D library using DMD's `-lib` compiler
flag, how do I run the unit tests in the generated library?
Cheers,
