TAP is awesome when you've got big projects with tests in multiple languages. Got tests written in bash, perl and node? No problem, just combine the results with a single test runner.

Just in case you missed it, Mojolicious is also available for TypeScript now, and the developer experience is pretty close to the Perl original. ;) https://mojojs.org
