`-v, --verbose`	Verbose test output	`false`
`-p, --parallel N`	Parallel test file runners	`1`
`--run pattern`	Run only tests matching substring

Test Functions¶

# math_test.star

def setup():
    """Runs before each test (optional)."""
    pass

def teardown():
    """Runs after each test (optional)."""
    pass

def test_addition():
    assert_equal(1 + 1, 2)

def test_strings():
    assert_contains("hello world", "hello")

def test_conditional():
    if runtime.platform() != "linux":
        skip("linux only")
    assert_true(exists("/etc/hosts"))

kite test ./tests/ --verbose           # Verbose output
kite test ./tests/ --run string        # Filter by name
kite test ./tests/ --parallel 4        # Parallel execution
