Do you use an automated test suite?

Hi,

I know this isn't an issue but I noticed that Github Discussions wasn't enabled for this repository. If this isn't the proper place to pose this question, would you mind directing me to the right place?

I maintain Cardiologist which is an in-process asynchronous job scheduling library for Kotlin. It has different overall goals from cron, but uses many of the same techniques for scheduling jobs. Specifically, it calculates when the next job is expected to occur and suspends until that point in time.

My hand rolled logic to determine when the next matching datetime is going to occur is a bit haphazard. I've been trying to find a reference test suite that different cron implementations have been using, but I haven't had any luck finding one. My question is if you use or know of a reference test suit I can look at? I would feel much more confident in my library if it passed such a test suite.

Thanks.
