TestNvim

TestNvim is a minimal neovim configuration for plugin testing. It behaves like any other neovim instance without causing conflicts with other neovim configurations.

Disclaimer

TestNvim is in early development. Although it seems to work pretty well there might be issues. In depth documentation follows soon.
