Hi,

Here are notes on Urchin and on testing shell programs.
https://thomaslevine.com/!/unix-style-tests/
https://thomaslevine.com/!/shell-testing/

I built them into slides for the talk.

Here's a picture of me standing in front of a BSD sign in Sofia, Bulgaria.

I demonstrated Urchin on this silly test suite.

You can download Urchin here.

Note that I mostly discussed the present unstable trunk version of
Urchin; go here documentation of the present release.

In case anyone plays with it enough to have commentary, I am
presently considering whether the timeout feature (-T) is necessary and
whether there's a better approach for testing on multiple operating
systems (-r).
