The test I have right now looks like this:

```
  test do
    system bin/""datasette"", ""--help""
  end
```
The Homebrew docs at https://docs.brew.sh/Formula-Cookbook#add-a-test-to-the-formula say:

> We want tests that don't require any user input and test the basic functionality of the application. For example `foo build-foo input.foo` is a good test and (despite their widespread use) `foo --version` and `foo --help` are bad tests. However, a bad test is better than no test at all.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",677250834,
