As a P.S. I did say it was more opinionated,  but on hindsight I am not
sure that is the right phrase. I meant that it was intentionally simple so
there was less room to hang yourself as oppose to midje which is excellent
but can more easily accommodate poor behaviour.

For example, in the early days I was particularly susceptible to writing
functions which did too much and called too many other functions. With
Midje, mocking these other functions was trivial, on hindsight a bit more
pain would have been a helpful smell.

I guess you can misuse any tool, and it was my insufficiency not Midje, but
sometimes removing the choices is a good thing.
Hi Colin

I'm a beginner, and I started with midje.  But I was very interested to
read your thoughts about clojure.test being more opinionated.  Since I'm
still learning, I suspect I would benefit from clojure.test's encouragement
to be more idiomatic.

However, one thing I absolutely love is midje's autotest.  I love writing
out my editor and having the tests run immediately in another window.  No
more bugs of the form, "Oh, this is just a simple, obvious change; no need
to re-run tests."

Is there anything like that which could be done with clojure.test?

Thanks!
Steve
