Description

There are many ways that the test suite could be improved. For example:

  • The same inputs could be run with a variety of configs, like:
    • 2- or 4-space indents
    • 60, 80, or 120 width columns
    • free, left, or multiple indent policy
  • Testing some larger files or groups of files, like:
    • Brittany itself (#238)
    • test suites from other projects like hindent
    • all of Stackage
    • all of Hackage
