Hey Justin,

A bit of quick background information:

QUnit is the jQuery unit testing framework, and it has recently been improved. We've been running off a custom fork of it which we dubbed jqUnit. Justin is migrating us back to the standard version.

We also have some asserts that provide compatibility with the xUnit- style asserts. We like them, so the question is what to call them.

I'm nearing the completion of switching from jqUnit to qUnit.

Since I need the name change in order to complete the conversion, please post your suggestions by the end of the day.

A bunch of us talked this over on the IRC channel. Here's a summary of the conversation:

colinclark:I think everyone here tends to prefer the xUnit-style asserts.
colinclark:Rather than ok() and the like.

Bosmon:Yes, they are unfortunate
Bosmon:Well, my suggestion is that we just continue to call it jqUnit

anastasiac:hm... it's a jUnit - qUnit adapter, right?
anastasiac:so "jqUnit" seems at least mildly fitting

michelled:I suppose xqUnit is slightly better but I don't think it's enough better to change
michelled:I'm happy with jqUnit

Justin_o:Bosmon, colinclark, michelled, anastasiac: sounds like we are going to keep jqUnit

So, we'll stick with "jqUnit." Justin, thanks for fixing this issue, it's nice to get rid of our little fork.

Colin
