Open Source Unix Shell Automated Testing Tools

"Yet Another Do-It-Yourself (Test) Automation Framework" specification. Use or modify one of the existing software implementations (hosted/referenced here), or implement the framework yourself. Download and read the spec for more details.

audit-test is a test suite designed to provide automated testing for the light-weight audit framework that first appeared in the 2.6.4 kernel. It has been used regularly since RHEL4 and has most recently been updated for RHEL6.3 and SLES11. The test suite now covers functionality beyond audit and includes the automated tests required for the BSI OSPP, including labeled security and virtualization.

Bats is a TAP-compliant testing framework for Bash. It provides a simple way to verify that the UNIX programs you write behave as expected. A Bats test file is a Bash script with special syntax for defining test cases. Under the hood, each test case is just a function with a description. Bats is most useful when testing software is written in Bash, but you can use it to test any UNIX program. Test cases consist of standard shell commands. Bats makes use of Bash's errexit (set -e) option when running test cases. If every command in the test case exits with a 0 status code (success), the test passes. In this way, each line is an assertion of truth. The Bats source code repository is hosted on GitHub. There you can file bugs on the issue tracker or submit tested pull requests for review.

Corredor is a robust general framework for performing software test automation. The suite aims to simplify the set up, maintenance, and running of tasks, supporting remote distribution, parallel execution, & dependancy hierarchies.

QAWIKI is a wiki for QA engineers. It is a wiki which also supports an Integrated Test Environment (ITE) which allows a QA engineer to create a test case on a portal and execute/schedule it on a remote box, then collect the logs and disp them in reports.

The RBSEE (Remote Bash Script Execution Engine) is set of the bash script which allows user to send & execute scripts on a remote platform and then collect and assert results. Mainly used for test automation.

SAFS is a software test automation framework supporting data-driven (aka keyword-driven) functional test automation and associated services. The framework can run stand-alone on Windows, Linux, and Mac as well as integrate the use of IBM Rational Functional Tester, IBM Rational Robot, Smart Bear/AutomatedQA Test Complete, Apple XCode UIAutomation, Android SDK Automaton, Thoughtworks Selenium, and several other tools. Among other features, it provides advanced support of language localization testing (NLS) allowing the same tests to work for many different languages or test configurations. With various different tool configurations SAFS can be used to test Java, Web/Html, Flex, .Net, WPF, Win, iOS, and Android domains natively. And with advanced Image-Based Testing support built-in SAFS can be used to test virtually anything, anywhere.

ETAF: e Test Automation Framework The 'e' in ETAF signifies that it is a web based framework. It also stands for Efficient and Effective.

Modern software systems and application are commonly written in multiple languages, include scripting engines, and are frequently build on multiple specialized frameworks and middleware for a considerable diversity of runtime environments. The latest influencing update in development paradigm is the application of multicore processors. This projects is aimed to unify the required trace and logging output and integrate into debugging environments. The target is to provide general development, test, and production support of software environments based on multiple programming languages for distributed multicore environments.
