Open Source C++ QA Automation Software

Static analysis of C/C++ code. Checks for: memory leaks, mismatching allocation-deallocation, buffer overrun, and many more. The goal is 0% false positives. See http://cppcheck.sourceforge.net for more information.

A Notepad++ plugin that allows users to run JSLint (The JavaScript Code Quality Tool) against their open JavaScript files (more about JSLint at http://www.jslint.com/lint.html). Also supports JSHint (http://www.jshint.com/).

CppUnit is the C++ port of the famous JUnit framework for unit testing. Test output is in XML or text format for automatic testing and GUI based for supervised tests.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

cite-effect helps understand, validate and refactor programs through static analysis. After building a database, it reports variable's accesses within call tree(s), in a text format suitable for integration into editors (like jEdit or Emacs).

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.

Utility to dump undecorated C++ symbols from C/C++ libraries in a sorted fashion. Useful for testing new library versions for backwards ABI compatibility, among other things. Requires a valid install of VS.Net 2003 or VS 2005, and the .NET 2.0 framework.

API Caller is a software for extracting API functions from any executable and can be used to call them. With this tool, quality can easily be checked by calling functions and checking them if they are error-free.

libeasycgi is designed to be an easy to use and ASP-like library for CGI programming. It will provide an interface for CGI programming in an ASP style and tries to go beyond this. Also, it is designed to be easy for automated test on CGI programs.

A framework for abstract access to CM / SCM / SCCM / ALM systems (Bugzilla, ClearCase, Mantis, StarTeam, etc.). The project offers one SDK for Bugzilla, ClearCase, Mantis, StarTeam, etc.

Automatic correction of software bugs announced in compilers (clang, gcc) / Static Code Analysis tools (cppcheck, FindBugs) and grammar/style errors like in LanguageTool. Usage: use tool (e.g. cppcheck) and store results in a text file. Afterwards call: autoreplacerplus mytextfile

AvatarSAT is a SAT solver that uses machine-learning classifiers to automatically tune the heuristics of an off-the-shelf SAT solver on a per-instance basis.

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.

COAL - Code On Another Level

CQSAT is a powerful, comprehensive and extensible framework for static analysis of program source code and detection of software defects.
