The test-engine/scheme-tests.ss can be used as a library by programs that aren't written in the teaching language currently; the test results from this library appear in print statements instead of a window in DrScheme.

So does htdp/testing ... (test) . Why are we deprecating htdp/ testing again?


The functionality doesn't need to (and isn't) going away.

All htdp/testing does is reexport items from the other library, but unlike test-engine/scheme-tests it can easily be added by students as a teach pack.

If a student does this, and then calls (test) manually; all of their test results appear twice. Why is this a desirable behavior to have? Why should we be letting students add this as a teach pack?
