  Description     : Extremely fast and lightweight test runner for Node.js and the browser

There are many JavaScript test frameworks, most popular are tap, tape,
mocha and jest (packaged). Only jest is able to test browser libraries
in this list.
Some upstream authors prefer to switch to uvu because this one is faster
and able to testbrowser libraries. To avoid having to many untested
packages, I'm going to package uvu. It will be used quickly
(to test new node-postcss for example).
I packaged also node-jasmine which is able to test browser libraries
(only).

Note also that test written for one of these frameworks are not
compatible with another except jest that understand partially mocha
tests.

Package will be maintained under Pkg-JS Team umbrella.
