ANN: TestGen 0.04 Software Test Framework Released

TestGen release 0.04 is now available. It is the first publicly announced release of this Python package.
TestGen is a Python package for software testing. The package currently contains targets for unit testing C/C++. Future releases will support integration testing of C/C++ systems as well as functional testing using Python targets.
- requires Python2.2 or later (it was developed on Python2.3 with some testing/verification performed with 2.2) - Python API for specification of test case setup, inputs and outputs (Python's power and flexibility can be used to generate test cases) - generates "C/C++" test code per test specifications, compiles, links, runs, and evaluates the results - provides access to C++ protected and private variables and methods - function/method stubbing (for satisfying external linkages or testing interfaces to them) - function/method remove/copy (for isolating code under test to reduce external linkage requirements) - "on the fly" code under test manipulation capability (useful for making temporary code modifications to make it testable) - convenient "C" random number function library (useful when iterating the test to get better coverage) - easy file output comparison and base lining - test expectations independently verified for successful completion. - batch facility available for running multiple test scripts (batch tests may be nested in that they may execute other batch tests) - GNU and Microsoft compilers supported (customizable for others)
The vast majority of TestGen is released under the GNU General Public License with the small remainder released under the MIT License.
