Thank you! Clojure is a natural fit for Jepsen: it has access to broad library support (key for testing lots of different databases), makes data manipulation easy (simplifies writing checkers), and has a good concurrency story (important for a concurrent testing system). It's got reasonable performance and a very expressive language core.
