Neotest uses [nvim-nio](https://github.com/nvim-neotest/nvim-nio) and [plenary.nvim](https://github.com/nvim-lua/plenary.nvim/).

Most adapters will also require [nvim-treesitter](https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter).
Most adapters will also require [nvim-treesitter](https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter) but Neotest itself doesn't need it to work.

Neotest uses the `CursorHold` event. This uses the `updatetime`
setting which is by default very high, and lowering this can lead to excessive writes to disk.
