EasyMock provides Mock Objects for interfaces in JUnit tests by generating them on the fly using Java's proxy mechanism. Due to EasyMock's unique style of recording expectations, most refactorings will not affect the Mock Objects. So EasyMock is a perfect
Test driven development (TDD) is emerging as one of the most successful developer productivity enhancing techniques to be recently discovered. The three-step: write test, write code, refactor – is a dance many of us are enjoying. This site is dedicated to promoting techniques, tools, and general good will in the test-driven community.
The simple, flexible Marathon Java testing tool reached version 1.0. With this Marathon garnered the ability to record almost all actions on standard Java/Swing controls including drag and drop. Marathon records all actions on unrecognized user interface elements, so you can use Marathon for even automating actions on non-standard components. Use custom component resolvers to further extend Marathon to record semantic actions on your custom components. Benefit from the improvements to Marathon, like dock-able windows, cut&paste operations in the editors and of course, tabbed editing facilities. Download Marathon now and explore the possibilities of test automation.
FReT is a common lisp package for testing common lisp software. Version 0.3 is at present at least as functional as any such software publically available, but still far from complete.
Phantastic!
"EclEmma is a free Java code coverage tool for Eclipse, available under the Eclipse Public License. Internally it is based on the great EMMA Java code coverage tool, trying to adopt EMMA's philosophy for the Eclipse workbench:
* Fast develop/test cycle: Launches from within the workbench like JUnit test runs can directly be analyzed for code coverage.
* Rich coverage analysis: Coverage results are immediately summarized and highlighted in the Java source code editors.
* Non-invasive: EclEmma does not require modifying your projects or performing any other setup.
The Eclipse integration has its focus on supporting the individual developer in an highly interactive way.
The update site for EclEmma is http://update.eclemma.org/."
Canoo WebTest is a free open source tool for automated testing of web applications.
It calls web pages and verifies results, giving comprehensive reports on success and failure. The White Paper provides an overview of the features and the design rationale. Detailed information is provided in the Manual Overview as well as the Install and Troubleshooting guides.
iValidator is a framework for XML-based test automation of complex test scenarios. iValidator is completely written in Java. The framework is available under an open source licence.
For those of you who've got into it you'll know that test driven development is great. It gives you the confidence to change code safe in the knowledge that if something breaks you'll know about it. Except for those bits you don't know how to test. Until now XML has been one of them. Oh sure you can use "<stuff></stuff>".equals("<stuff></stuff>"); but is that really gonna work when some joker decides to output a <stuff/>? -- damned right it's not ;-)
W3C Schema can quickly become complex and difficult to determine if they are validating the correct vocabulary. The addition of embedded Schematron schema only makes this problem worse. Schema Unit Test (SUT) introduces a framework for testing XML Schema.
This framework has two parts.
The first is a namespace and vocabulary for embedding test cases into sample XML documents, designed to highlight what is legal and what is not legal in the vocabulary defined in the schema under test. This aspect is independent of what schema language is used and can in theory be applied to any schema language with automatic validation tools.
The second part is a Java implementation using JUnit for testing a W3C Schema with embedded Schematron schema. This implementation reads SUT test suite descriptions written in XML with embedded test cases as described above and then creates a JUnit test suite that can be executed inside JUnit in the usual way.
Feedback is vital for the practice of Continuous Integration (CI) -- in fact, it's the life blood of a CI system. Rapid feedback enables speedy responses to build events that require attention. Without feedback mediums like e-mail or RSS, builds in a broken state have the tendency to stay broken, which defeats the purpose of CI in the first place! In this installment of Automation for the people, automation expert Paul Duvall examines various feedback mechanisms that you can incorporate into CI systems.
