Many other languages have similar easy ways of running tests on file changes.
For example, in (Node)JS, you can just do `npx jest -o` if you are using Jest testing library, and with Scala you would usually use `~ test` in sbt shell.

In JS land you could do the same I think, but you would need to export all methods that you want to test and they are in other files, and to make things worse you need to setup Typescript to make your IDE more useful and also write less tests, I would argue that in that case vite/vitest will be more helpful because the tests runs with the same config as the bundler, but still, it does not work out of the box as Rust, there might be other languages that have also good ergonomics as Rust in that regard, but none of the languages that I use besides Rust do that.
Cypress on the other hand I found to be really, really good
Personally I prefer Vitest to Jest... if it will work for the codebase I'm in.
