A command-line tool for executing Visual Studio created unit tests outside of the Visual Studio IDE - not really a testing framework as it is a part of the Visual Studio Unit Testing Framework. NaturalSpec: No [260] Domain-specific language for writing specifications in a natural language. Based on NUnit. NBi: Yes [397]
The Test Anything Protocol (TAP) is a protocol for communicating between test logic, called a TAP producer, and a test harness in a language-agnostic way. Originally developed for unit testing of the Perl interpreter in 1987, producers and parsers are now available for many development platforms.
A test management tool is software used to manage tests (automated or manual) that have been previously specified by a test procedure. It is often associated with automation software. Test management tools often include requirement and/or specification management modules that allow automatic generation of the requirement test matrix (RTM ...
Software testing can also be performed by non-dedicated software testers. In the 1980s, the term software tester started to be used to denote a separate profession. Notable software testing roles and titles include: [65] test manager, test lead, test analyst, test designer, tester, automation developer, and test administrator. [66]
Development, testing, acceptance and production (DTAP) [1] [2] is a phased approach to software testing and deployment. The four letters in DTAP denote the following common steps: Development: The program or component is developed on a development system. This development environment might have no testing capabilities.
Test management tools offer the prospect of streamlining the testing process and allow quick access to data analysis, collaborative tools and easy communication across multiple project teams. Many test management tools incorporate requirements management capabilities to streamline test case design from the requirements. Tracking of defects and ...
Integration testing, also called integration and testing, abbreviated I&T, is a form of software testing in which multiple parts of a software system are tested as a group. Integration testing describes tests that are run at the integration-level to contrast testing at the unit or system level.
In software development, the term was metaphorically adopted to describe a preliminary round of testing that checks for basic functionality. Like its physical counterparts, a software smoke test aims to identify critical failures early, ensuring the system is stable and that all required components are functioning before proceeding to more ...
