We use qunit to test jquery-ujs, for what its worth.

I definitely get the impression that

code, instead relying on integration tests to catch errors

I happen to use Jasmine, but I'm not particuarly wild about it. I'd
be interested in what over people use, but I suspect Jasmine is it.
Although there are a *lot* of javascript testing libraries, there
isn't much consensus among javascripters which one(s) to use. As a
result, they all suffer from the lack of support and tooling. Each
library seems to be missing key features. Major framework support
of one of them (Jasmine or not) would hopefully catapult one to the
forefront.
+1 for any damn thing.
Until there's a clear winner I don't think there's much point us
'picking a winner'. As you say, being included in rails will likely
provide a lot of momentum to whatever was picked and I'd prefer that
that momentum was added to something which had already proven it was
head and shoulders above the rest. There are sufficient hooks for
gems to implement the generators and rake tasks as required, so i
think we don't need to hastily include the flavor of the month when
it's still changing so regularly.
Remember, it took us till 3.1 to switch to jQuery by default. Some
caution in a project of our size is warranted. Once everyone in the
JS testing camp is pushing the same tech, we can see what, if
anything, we need to bake into rails itself.
