LuaUnit is a popular unit-testing framework for Lua, with an interface typical of xUnit libraries (Python unittest, Junit, NUnit, ...). It supports several output formats (Text, TAP, JUnit, ...) to be used directly or work with Continuous Integration platforms (Jenkins, Maven, ...).

If I get it correctly, you want to create a kind of restricted environment / sandbox, where you would run your luaunit tests ?

Did you try to run it already ? The only problem I could see is how luaunit discovers tests. Normally, it discovers them from the global namespace. If that does not work, it is possible to run an explicit test function using something like:

runSuiteByInstances( { { 'test_abc', test_abc } } )
