  Description     : A lightweight and colourful test framework for OCaml

Alcotest exposes simple interface to perform unit tests. It
exposes a simple TESTABLE module type, a check function to
assert test predicates and a run function to perform a list
of unit -> unit test callbacks.

Alcotest provides a quiet and colorful output where only
faulty runs are fully displayed at the end of the run (with
the full logs ready to inspect), with a simple (yet
expressive) query language to select the tests to run.

It is a dependency of ocaml-unix-errno and will be maintained under the
OCaml team.
