The record

Purpose: QUnitX lets teams write one JavaScript or TypeScript test file and run it with Node.js, Deno, or in a browser.
Setup: The project says it needs no configuration, setup files, transform pipeline, injected globals, or runtime dependencies.
Install: The README gives npm and Deno installation commands and requires Node.js 22 or later or Deno 2 or later.
Assertions: The assertion API includes deep and partial equality checks, error matching, ordered steps, assertion-count checks, and per-test timeouts.
Hooks: Tests can be grouped in nested modules with before, beforeEach, afterEach, and after hooks.
Browser UI: The browser UI supports filtering tests, sharing filtered views by URL, rerunning individual tests, and viewing assertion diffs.
Browser runner: The linked qunitx-cli runs JavaScript and TypeScript tests in headless Chromium, Firefox, or WebKit and streams TAP output to the terminal.
Integrations: The CLI supports esbuild plugins for custom loaders and provides GitHub-annotated output, JUnit XML, V8 coverage reports, and a JavaScript API.
Platforms: The CLI README lists standalone binaries for Linux x64, macOS arm64, and Windows x64.
Requirements: The CLI requires Node.js 24 or later or Deno 2.7 or later; its default Chromium browser mode also requires system Chrome or CHROME_BIN when using the standalone binary.
Coverage limit: The QUnitX README says browser coverage has a source-map limitation because qunitx-cli bundles test files with esbuild.
License: The GitHub repository lists an MIT license.
Maker: The repository identifies izelnakri as its owner and describes QUnitX as a project by its maker; it provides no headquarters or founding date in the opened pages.
