@graywolf FWIW I’ve always been dissatisfied with SRFI-64, the spec and (perhaps more importantly) the implementation (all those ‘cond-expand’ make it very messy, indeed).
I get by by using a subset of the interface; I don’t use groups, I don’t fiddle with the runner API unless I can’t avoid it, and I even avoid ‘test-error’ because it’s not correctly ported to Guile IIRC. It’s mostly okay.
But clearly, there’s room for a better test suite interface and implementation!
@graywolf Nice work! Very good writeup, thank you for writing it.
