In their own words
Rust libtest
Rust libtest is Rust’s built-in test harness for compiling and running crate tests. Building with `rustc --test` links the executable to libtest; tests are free functions marked `#[test]`. Cargo’s `cargo test` handles building and running unit, integration, and documentation tests, including code samples extracted from library documentation comments. A test succeeds when it returns without an error; a panic or non-zero termination result marks failure. You can mark tests to expect a panic or to be ignored, filter by name, choose exact matches, skip matches, select ignored tests, or list tests and benchmarks without running them. Tests run in parallel by default, with the thread count configurable. The harness can capture output, display successful-test output, and format results as pretty, terse, or JSON; JSON formatting is unstable. Rust libtest is free and supports Linux, macOS, and Windows. Catching panics requires the unwind strategy; abort-strategy support is experimental. Benchmarking and custom harnesses are experimental and nightly-only.
