TDD no, unit testing yes. If you want test helpers,

You can also just use assertions.

Nice, I didn't know that.
As for what I was looking for I guess I will evaluate the
possibilities to implement something else on top of some
version of the Lua VM for now.
I am wondering what the simplest multi-language VM is.
Obviously the CLR and JVM are not candidates. Parrot is
interesting but is bloated too. The Lua VM is simple
but too tied to the language.
I have found about the Dis VM [1]. It looks interesting,
does anybody here still use it?
