Testing Tools

swtbot

SWTBot is an open-source Java based functional testing tool for testing SWT and Eclipse based applications. SWTBot provides APIs that are simple to read and write. The APIs also hide the complexities involved with SWT and Eclipse. This makes it suitable for functional testing by everyone. SWTBot also provides its own set of assertions that are useful for SWT. You can also use your own assertion framework with SWTBot. SWTBot has a driver and recorder to playback and record tests and integrates with Eclipse, and also provides for ant tasks so that you can run your builds from within CruiseControl or any other CI tool that you use. SWTBot can run on all platforms that SWT runs on. Very few other testing tools provide such a wide variety of platforms.

 

cactus

Cactus is a simple test framework for unit testing server-side java code (Servlets, EJBs, Tag Libs, Filters, ...). The intent of Cactus is to lower the cost of writing tests for server-side code. It uses JUnit and extends it.

 

ddsteps

DDSteps is a JUnit extension for building data driven test cases. In a nutshell, DDSteps lets you parameterize your test cases, and run them more than once using different data. Since DDSteps is 100% JUnit compatible, you can run your new data driven test cases just like any old JUnit test case. No IDE plugins or new Ant tasks are required - just add the DDSteps jars to your classpath and you are ready to go! DDSteps uses external test data (in Excel) which is injected into your test case using standard JavaBeans properties. Your test case is run once for each row of data, so adding new tests is just a matter of adding a row of data in Excel. DDSteps integrates best-of-breed toolkits for web and database testing, such as JWebUnit, DbUnit and Spring Framework. By making these toolkits data driven, you can do powerful function testing. Automated end-to-end testing of your website is not only possible - it is easy. Features:

 * Run a JUnit TestCase method many times, each time with different test data.
 * Write tests in Java/JUnit and write data in Excel, using the best tool for each task.
 * Handles massive amounts of test data by keeping data separate from code, thus enabling both to be as compact as possible.
 * Use standard JavaBean getters/setters to fill your testcase with data. You don't have to write any code to pull in data, all that is handled by the DDSteps framework.
 * Tap into the power of property injection which is a complement to dependency injection found in frameworks like Spring. Property injection does not deal with dependencies, it handles simple data, but lots and lots of it.

 

xmlunit

XMLUnit for Java provides two JUnit extension classes, XMLAssert and XMLTestCase, and a set of supporting classes (e.g. Diff, DetailedDiff, Transform, SimpleXpathEngine, Validator, NodeTest) that allow assertions to be made about:

 * The differences between two pieces of XML
 * The outcome of transforming a piece of XML using XSLT
 * The evaluation of an XPath expression on a piece of XML
 * The validity of a piece of XML
 * Individual nodes in a piece of XML that are exposed by DOM Traversal XMLUnit for Java can also treat HTML content (even badly-formed HTML) as valid XML to allow these assertions to be made about the content of web pages too.

 

the-grinder

The Grinder is load-testing framework. The Grinder makes it easy to orchestrate the activities of a test script in many processes across many machines, using a graphical console application. Test scripts make use of client code embodied in Java plug-ins. Most users of The Grinder do not write plug-ins themselves, instead they use one of the supplied plug-ins. The Grinder comes with a mature plug-in for testing HTTP services, as well as a tool which allows HTTP scripts to be automatically recorded.

 

grandtestauto

GrandTestAuto is a tool for unit testing applications written in Java. GrandTestAuto automatically runs all unit tests for an application and at the same time checks that the unit tests provide sufficient coverage.

 

testare

TESTARE is a testing framework that aims to simplify the test development process for distributed enterprise JAVA applications. It tries to achieve this goal by focusing on two main directions:

 * provide straightforward and easy to use "in container" testing capabilities
 * provide native support for test environment management and introspection techniques such as fixtures, global fixtures, probes and guards Its initial focus is on "in ejb container" testing but its extensible architecture makes it very easy to develop support for other execution environments such as SERVLETS, JMS listeners, CORBA ORBs or RMI.

 

mocklib

A very small library and therefore easy to use to dynamically create a mock object. You can throw exceptions from fake systems that are returned from this library to ensure your system handles faults correctly. It is also a threadsafe mocklibrary unlike most other similar mock object libraries out there.
