Anybody remember "cram"? From about 10 years ago, https://bitheap.org/cram/ basically a markdown syntax (making heavy use of code-blocks) for documenting and writing tests as "shell commands and expected output" (with a bunch of the sharp edges filed off, like line endings and partial matches.) Was particularly good for easy-to-write, easy-to-review tests of unix utilities. (It's the kind of thing that you only stumble on if you've been working with doctests but they don't really fit well for shell/unix stuff...)
