Xml Automation Framework (XAF) is an open source framework designed around the idea of XML based test automation.
Automation essentially involves 3 main components, Plan-Design-Validation. XAF allows to do all 3 using simple yet powerful XML.
The core logic is thus embedded into XML which will delegate the actions to any 3rd party plugins.
Apart from this, TCP/IP packets can be crafted seamlessly in XML's. As a result, any type of network flows can be simulated. The packets can be sent over a real/virtual network interface OR dumped into pcap file for further analysis.
Originally designed for networking(datacom)/telecom testing applications, this tool can be expanded to other applications as well.
