I first saw it used with JavaScript, so I assume yes; but the site itself answers this, too. (specifically the producers and consumers pages.)
I think it is of limited use if you can use any of the more sophisticated defacto standards like JUnit compatible output. Still, you can imagine scenarios where a stupidly simple test protocol would be nice. One fairly esoteric use case might be test ROMs for CPU emulators; today many of them output results to serial in some format, but AFAIK there is no unification of the format at all, across different test ROMs.
