shell testing

I have never seen in my life a bash shell being covered by automated tests.

I have thought of using Java and Mockito and Junit5, but it's not very straightforward to run shells from Java (in 2019.... maybe in 2 years it will be normal).

But I think it would be an excellent idea.

This is the shunit2 framework:

Here the reference manual for shell scripting http://www.gnu.org/savannah-checkouts/gnu/bash/manual/bash.html but it's a bit too academic.

PS shell scripting sucks
