I'm aware that some Bash testing frameworks already exist. I know about Bats, bashunit, Bach, and some others.
"Best" will not try to be a direct competitor to those, and I certainly don't think mine is going to be the "best" Bash testing framework. It's just a silly name, influenced by Jest and Pest, putting the first letter "B" from "Bash" at the beginning of the name.

I started developing this Bash testing framework because I was actually starting a different project but without an internet connection. So with literally zero dependencies, I wanted to quickly start working on something and write some tests to design and validate the system I was starting to build. I was able to get something simple working pretty fast! Bash is neat.
