Why Testship?

Section titled “Why Testship?”

Testship brings testing directly to your Solana Anchor programs, wherever they are. Unlike other testing platforms that require you to move your code to their IDE or playground, Testship works seamlessly with your existing development environment.

Value Proposition: Bring testing to your program rather than moving your program to the test suite.

Traditional platforms like Solana Playground or Codigo require you to write programs on their platform or IDE to use their testing utilities. Most developers don’t want to change their IDE or platform just for testing. Testship works directly on your machine, with your existing code.
