I will reply here, but please, I suggest that we follow this thread on the firebird-test list

All basic informations are here :
http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php?op=devel&sub=qa&id=qmtest_howto
and others pages of the Firebird QA

So we are using QMtest and since it is a Python tool, we can use it under Linux, Windows,
MacOsX, Solaris, ...

What it is not said in the web pages, is that Pavel wrote a gui to create tests, and that
he created also a tool to generate html reports for tests results.

So the use of all this is not difficult.
For example, since January two french students that never used Firebird and Qmtest before,
created for us 71 new tests for Fb2.1
(I have to check them and commit them into our svn)

The way the tools are design, there is no problem to use them for your own test, on the
database you wanted.
And if more people use these tools, I hope that in return, they will give us some of their
tests sor we can improve our test suite.
The more tests we make, the more we have chance to give you a robust product.
So you're welcome.
And please come on the firebird-test AT lists.sourceforge.net, we will be pleased to help you.
