I am not talking about production, we are all agree that Node is not ready for production, and we do not want it as a backend. But the facts are that we need a lot of its features, which will increase the tests and the development. Currently, we do not have any javascript code quality: jslint is a great tool and can be used easily into node. Angularjs also provides end-to-end testing based on nodejs again, testing is important especially if we start to put more logic into JS. Selenium is used just to run qUnit tests, we can bring back these tests into node and have a clean unified testing platform. Tests will be easier to perform.

It'd be nice to add in the modern angular testing model, karma /
jasmine, and my JS can *DEFINITELY* use jslint :)
