The next item on the todo list : Invoke setUp first
So here we will implement the test fixture usually called setup or beforeEach in other testing frameworks. It aims to execute code before any test function.
Let's see how it's done !

This first step, to an xUnit implementation, was pretty fun. You can taste it with the introductory sentence :
« Driving a testing tool using the testing tool itself to run the tests may seem a bit like performing brain surgery on yourself. »
Let's see how far can I push this adaptation in the Guile programming language.
I like to write tests in a specification based fashion. So I started to work on Guile-Spec.
At the time of writing this post, it's no more than a set of syntax-rules on top of SRFI-64.
Let's see how it feels…
I love Test Driven Development. You might already know it if you are following my journey. Kent Beck wrote the book in 2002. He has chosen to provide examples using Java and Python in an Object Oriented way.
Now, I want to use the Guile programming language to follow the examples in the book and see how things are different !
These last days, I tried to send an SMS with a Guile script. TL;DR: I succeeded!
A new section of the book has been published: Create an Application !
A new chapter of the book has been published in the data types section: strings!
Recently, I discovered WriteFreely.el, an Emacs extension to publish and update Org-mode files as posts on any WriteFreely instance (such as Write.as, as the default instance).
I started developing a web application in Guile. The goal of this application is to help me choose the content of my meals according to my tastes, my lifestyle and my nutritional balance! If I consume better, my health and the planet can only benefit.
In this article, I share with you my current workflow!
Best wishes to all of you!
So far, I've shown you how to manage your software packages manually, in profiles, with the guix package command (and its aliases). Each of these transactions creates a new generation of a profile with the changes made.
Now, I'll show you how to generate profiles in a row with what are called manifests!
