Trevor Settles (Mar 23 2024 at 16:43): Trevor Settles (Mar 23 2024 at 16:43):I'm curious what the story round mixing tests and tasks is. I tried doing a simple Stdout.line "" == Stdout.line "", and the compiler says that tasks don't implement the Eq ability. This doesn't surprise me, since Tasks probably use functions, which also don't implement Eq. Is there a way to assert against these kinds of managed effects? It would be nice to be able to pass the entire main function into a test, and drive functionality that way, TDD style.
I tried looking for other zulip streams or things on the website, but couldn't find anything.

Luke Boswell (Mar 23 2024 at 18:41):If you checkout the module params proposal there is some discussion in there for how it might work. I've made a summary in case it helps
