We have been using Minitest as our testing library.

When I started Minitest, the incumbent testing library for Scala was ScalaTest, but its usage posed challenges for cross-compiling to Scala.js, as it wasn't yet supported. ScalaTest is a bigger library, and porting it to new Scala targets is challenging.

The problem with Minitest is that it is “non-standard” and has poor IDE support.

I don't want testing to be an issue when contributing to Monix. Therefore, migration to either ScalaTest/MUnit has to be investigated.

👍 for using a different testing library and potentially retiring Minitest to decrease the project's scope
