@acf if you are new to #Kotlin, I think you are going to like Kotlin. It's probably my favourite language to do Actual Programming in. It seems to fit in my head the best.

I can get Go to do the things I want but it seems more 'clunky'. And Python is great but I do miss the static typing (and the Kotlin IDE support is nuts, of course).

I haven't tried any of the Apple languages so you are coming from a different vantage point, but I think you are going to enjoy it.

@thirstybear to answer your first question, depends on the language.

#Kotlin allows you to have plain text in the test name using `backticks for the string's delimiters` <-- that is a valid test name!

For other languages, I introduced the describe/it pair into rspec long ago (when I wrote rbehave which begat the rspec story runner which begat Cucumber, the last of its name, which begat SpecFlow, which begat Reqnroll, etc.).
