Description
Currently our standard test setup is using mocha and globbing for files. This doesn't work well with bundlers like esbuild or webpack. There are hacks to allow star imports in both these bundlers, but ideally we could figure some less-intrusive way to deal with these.

Research direction
The issue does not name files or tests; start by locating the standard Mocha setup and its file-globbing entry point. Compare how that setup behaves with esbuild and webpack, and consider the work complete when bundled tests can run without intrusive star-import hacks.
