'Golden tests' are tests that deliberately save expected output to a file, to make them easy to examine or regenerate. https://ro-che.info/articles/2017-12-04-golden-tests I'm familiar with the concept, but it's nice to see a handy label for it.
Introduction to golden testing
Golden tests are like unit tests, except the expected output is stored in a separate file. I learned about them in 2010 from Max Grigorev at ZuriHac.

Rust is exploring ideas that allow it to generalise over effects, so you don't need foo and foo_async. It's an unusual name, and potentially complicates error messages, but it's good problem to examine.
