Open Source Unix Shell Test Frameworks

Simplified unit test framework for shell script which produces junit-style xml results file (for Jenkins/Hudson).

Bash-it is a collection of community Bash commands and scripts for Bash 3.2+. Includes autocompletion, themes, aliases, custom functions, a few stolen pieces from Steve Losh, and more. Bash-it provides a solid framework for using, developing, and maintaining shell scripts and custom commands for your daily work. If you're using the Bourne Again Shell (Bash) regularly and have been looking for an easy way on how to keep all of these nice little scripts and aliases under control, then Bash-it is for you! Stop polluting your ~/bin directory and your .bashrc file, fork/clone Bash-it and start hacking away. We think everyone has their own custom scripts accumulated over time. And so, following in the footsteps of oh-my-zsh, Bash-it is a framework for easily customizing your Bash shell. Everyone’s got a custom toolbox, so let’s start making them even better, as a community!

Firefly's Beetroot is a regression tester designed with ease of use in mind. The only requirement to operate it is some basic knowledge of the UNIX shell. Note that this is not a unit test framework. Testing occurs at program granularity, not at a level of a function. This is meant to be used only with software with a stable user interface. Changes in the interface could break your tests. Be warned.

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.

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.
