Cinemagoer is a Python package useful to retrieve and manage the data of the IMDb movie database about movies, people, characters and companies. Platform-independent, it can retrieve data from both the IMDb's web server and a local copy of the whole db.

SLOCCount is an easy-to-use tool that counts Source Lines of Code (SLOC). It auto-determines the language(s) (inc. C, C++, Ada, Assembly, shell, COBOL, C#, Fortran, Haskell, Java, LISP/Scheme, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby, SQL). It also estimates cost & time.

CCCC is a tool which analyzes C++ and Java files and generates a report on various metrics of the code. Metrics supported include lines of code, McCabe's complexity and metrics proposed by Chidamber&Kemerer and Henry&Kafura.

PerceptualDiff is an image comparison utility that compares two images using a perceptual metric. That is, it uses a computational model of the human visual system to determine if two images are visually different, so minor changes in pixels are ignored.

Robust, Lightweight, Cross-platform, Template Software. STLSoft is a collection of STL and standard library extensions, and facades over operating-system and 3rd-party APIs.

qpt (Qt Project Tool) understands Qt C++ projects (.pro) and allows to pass this information to command line tools as "Code Counters" and "Static Analysis tools". It also can used inside QtCreator to act as a plugin for "Static Analysis tools" putting reported issues into QtCreator issues pane.

AutoIt-Recorder is a tool written in C++ on .NET for windows. It aids the AutoIT (seperate project) developer in creating test scripts. These test scripts can be fed into the AutoIT tools to help the automation and testing of windows applications.

Avignon is an acceptance test system that allows you to write executable tests in a language that you define. It uses XML to define the syntax of the language but, if you choose to extend the language, leaves the semantics of the tests up to you.

Duplicated source code can harm maintainability of software systems. Duplo is a tool to find duplicated code blocks in large C, C++, Java, C# and VB.Net systems.

The Compartmented Robust Posix C++ Unit Test system. crpcut is a simple to use unit test system for C++, where each test case is run in its own process and own working directory, to ensure that each test case starts from a clean slate.

Open System Testing Architecture - a distributed software testing architecture designed around CORBA. The current toolset has the capability of performing scripted Web (HTTP and HTTPS) heavy load tests with performance measurements from Win32 platforms.

This framework supports a wide variety of model-based GUI testing techniques. The innovation lies in the architecture of GUITAR, which uses plug-ins to support flexibility and extensibility. Software developers and quality assurance engineers may use this architecture to create new toolchains, new workflows based on the toolchains, and plug in a variety of measurement tools to conduct GUI testing. More detail is presented in this publication: GUITAR: An Innovative Tool for Automated Testing of GUI-driven Software. Bao N. Nguyen, Bryan Robbins, Ishan Banerjee, and Atif Memon. Automated Software Engineering Journal. p.21, 1. 2014

ansvif, or A Not So Very Intelligent Fuzzer, suited to find bugs in code by throwing garbage arguments, files, and environment variables at the target program, that you may or may not have the source code to. It supports many features, such as buffer size, randomization of the buffer size, random data injection, templates, and much more. The purpose of this project is to identify bugs in software, specifically bugs that can induce a segmentation fault under various conditions. This aids security researchers in writing buffer overflows, input validation vulnerabilities, as well as helping one audit code for general logic mistakes.

HTML Validator is an Mozilla extension that adds HTML validation to Firefox and Mozilla. The number of errors of a HTML page is seen on the form of an icon in the status bar when browsing. The details are seen when looking the HTML source of the page.

PEP is a modelling and verification framework for parallel systems, providing a large number of different modelling languages and verification techniques (e.g. SDL, Petri nets and model checking)

Automation of Unit and System Tests. Tests can be implemented in any language and on many platforms. The flexible approach enables the inclusion of many types of tests, such as memory leak checks (using valgrind), coding rule checks, complexity checks, etc. Tests are run by a simple call to hwut in a base directory of a project. In particular for C, HWUT supports make file generation using 'sos' and 'sols' modes. Remote control-able function stubs may be generated using the 'stub' mode. Test cases can be generated using the 'gen' mode, and state machine walkers by the 'sm_walker' mode. Over the last decade HWUT has matured towards a full fledged unit test tool for a wide variety of applications.

This project is migrating to GitHub. https://github.com/richsposato/Hestia Hestia provides utilities and tools for improving software development process. Auto Build Checker (ABC) parses build results and makes HTML pages summarizing the build attempt. C++ Unit Test which allows people to easily make unit tests.

A very simple but effective testing framework for C and C++ projects.

DuploQ is a GUI frontend for Duplo duplicate finder console tool. Its goal is to find duplicates (i.e. copy-pasted parts of code) across several source files. Locating and eliminating source code duplicates is an important part of the overall refactoring process which leads to decreasing a project's technical dept and increasing stability of the software.

Dranzer: ActiveX vulnerability discovery tool. CERT developed this open source tool so that software developers can test ActiveX controls for vulnerabilities before the software is released to the public.

ggcov is a GTK+ GUI for exploring test coverage data produced by C programs compiled with gcc --coverage. It's basically a GUI replacement for the gcov program that comes with gcc.
