Question on wishlist item jest

[Mark1626]

I was exploring the community and came upon this request, thought I can help out.

I don't think completely porting jest to deno is a solution. Maybe a jest test-runner for deno? Would be similar to this https://github.com/MaximeHeckel/jest-runner-go

Even so, looks like deno-std has a testing module, so I think helping out there can be better

https://github.com/denoland/deno_std/tree/master/testing
denoland/deno_std#516

Can someone mention if this wish-list item is still needed, if so let me know I'll see if I can help

I believe current focus should be effort to improve https://github.com/denoland/deno_std/tree/master/testing

I agree that focus should be on tooling in Deno core, but I also believe it should be as easy as possible for developers to migrate to Deno. I'm not personally going to work on Jest, but I am working on Mocha and have written a working test runner: https://github.com/ahuggins-nhs/deno_mocha.

Bumping this issue. It's 2022, and Deno's testing module has evolved a bunch.
