So you decide to use std.experimental.allocator for your memory
allocations. Let's say you're as paranoid as me about getting the
allocations right. How do you know you're not leaking memory now
(no GC safety net)?. Or worse, deallocating memory you shouldn't?
The program didn't crash, but you never do know...
Enter the test allocator here:
http://code.dlang.org/packages/test_allocator
Run your code through that little guy in a unittest build and
worry no more. It throws an AssertError in the destructor if
there's a memory leak and also if you try and deallocate memory
that it doesn't know about. It's backed by Mallocator because
then you can also use valgrind or address sanitizer to catch even
more bugs.
