Introductory information Automated Testing Framework

Introduction
|
|
************
|
|
|
|
The Automated Testing Framework (ATF) is a collection of libraries and
|
|
utilities designed to ease unattended application testing in the hands of
|
|
developers and end users of a specific piece of software.
|
|
|
|
As regards developers, ATF provides the necessary means to easily create
|
|
test suites composed of multiple test programs, which in turn are a
|
|
collection of test cases. It also attempts to simplify the debugging of
|
|
problems when these test cases detect an error by providing as much
|
|
information as possible about the failure.
|
|
|
|
As regards users, it simplifies the process of running the test suites and,
|
|
in special, encourages end users to run them often: they do not need to
|
|
have source trees around nor any other development tools installed to be
|
|
able to certify that a given piece of software works on their machine as
|
|
advertised.
