The biggest question I ask myself is "Why ?". What does it offer that makes it (possibly) superior to the combo karma/jasmine ?

I'm a big fan of experimenting with different stuff, but in the end one has to choose his weapons.

Note: I'm a karma/jasmine fan, so my opinion is abit biased.

:thinking: wouldn't have said that :wink:. I simply put it here as a note. I'm using Karma+Jasmine mostly as well and haven't had the opportunity to try Jest yet. But a lot of people that recently tried it were overwhelmingly positive about the experience with it. So i thought it might be worth a try :smile:
