Thanks a lot for the feedback, Dirk and Mehmet,
My (large) test-code is in RUnit and so I'm glad to hear that it is fine.

Hello,
I see that quite some packages nowadays use testthat and that RUnit doesn't
have recent updates. On the other hand Rccp, fTrading and others (still)
test with RUnit.
My old code uses RUnit and I would prefer to keep it that way unless there
is an important reason to switch to testthat. If
Since some years I have the following domains which I don't need any longer

It makes no sense to hoard domains and I plan to give them away for a 'good
cause'. I'd like to have a small fee for the costs but
