SubUnit 0.0.6

<br />Subunit is a streaming protocol for test results. The protocol is human readable and easily generated and parsed. By design all the components of the protocol conceptually fit into the xUnit TestCase->TestResult interaction.<br /><br />Subunit comes with command line filters to process a subunit stream and<br />language bindings for python, C, C++ and shell. Bindings are easy to write<br />for other languages.<br /><br />A number of useful things can be done easily with subunit:<br /> * Test aggregation: Tests run separately can be combined and then<br /> reported/displayed together. For instance, tests from different languages<br /> can be shown as a seamless whole.<br /> * Test archiving: A test run may be recorded and replayed later.<br /> * Test isolation: Tests that may crash or otherwise interact badly with each<br /> other can be run seperately and then aggregated, rather than interfering<br /> with each other.<br /> * Grid testing: subunit can act as the necessary serialisation and<br /> deserialiation to get test runs on distributed machines to be reported in<br /> real time.<br /><br />Subunit supplies the following filters:<br /> * tap2subunit - convert perl's TestAnythingProtocol to subunit.<br /> * subunit2pyunit - convert a subunit stream to pyunit test results.<br /> * subunit2gtk - display a subunit stream in a gtk window.<br /> * subunit2junitxml - convert a subunit stream to a JUnit XML representation.<br /> * subunit-diff - diff two subunit streams.<br /> * subunit-filter - filter out tests from a subunit stream.<br /> * subunit-ls - list the tests present in a subunit stream.<br /> * subunit-stats - generate a summary of a subunit stream.<br /> * subunit-tags - add or remove tags from a stream.<br /><br />A mailing list for discussion, usage and development is at https://launchpad.net/~subunit-dev - all are welcome to join.<br /><br />Subunit is shipped by recent Debian and Ubuntu versions. Newer versions for Ubuntu may be available from either of the two Personal Package Archives : https://launchpad.net/~subunit/+archive/ppa and https://launchpad.net/~subunit/+archive/snapshots<br />
