Categories: Testing

Author: froglogic

Latest version: 3.3
Added 2008-02-07

Enables testing Java GUI applications based on SWT, RCP/Eclipse, Swing and AWT.

Squish for Java is a non-intrusive Java testing tool with integration into the Java GUI technologies. Tests created with Squish for Java are platform-independent. This means a test created e.g. on Windows without any changes on Linux or Mac OS X.
Squish for Java recognizes all standard SWT/Swing/AWT widgets and offers special support for complex widgets such as item views, trees, tables, menus and many more. In addition Squish for Java recognizes custom widgets derived from standard widgets.
Squish for Java provides access to the complete Java API via its test scripting languages and offers access to all objects and properties via the Spy and verification point editor. Additionally it is possible to dynamically access the application's API from test scripts for even more advanced tests and verifications.

HtmlUnit

Categories: Testing

Latest version: 1.5
Added 2005-05-03

Java unit testing framework for testing web based applications.
HtmlUnit is similar in concept to HttpUnit but is very different in implementation. Which one is better for you depends on how you like to write your tests. HttpUnit models the HTTP protocol so you deal with request and response objects. HtmlUnit on the other hand, models the returned document so that you deal with pages and forms and tables.

Cactus

Home Page

Categories: Testing

Author: Apache Jakarta

Latest version: 1.7
Added 2005-03-11

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.
Cactus implements an in-container strategy, meaning that tests are executed inside the container.

The Cactus ecosystem is made of several components:
- The Cactus Framework: This is the heart of Cactus. It is the engine that provides the API to write Cactus tests.
- The Cactus Integration Modules: They are front ends and frameworks that provide ways of using the Cactus Framework (Ant scripts, Eclipse plugin, Maven plugin, Browser integration to run Cactus tests from a browser, ...).
- The Cactus Samples: They are simple projects that demonstrate how to write Cactus tests and how to use some of the Integration Modules.

Features include:
- Integrates with the JUnit testing framework. Any tool that works with JUnit will work with Cactus because a Cactus test is a JUnit test.
- Provides a ServletTestCase class that your test case can extend for unit testing Servlets or any Java classes that make use of Servlet API objects.
- Provides a JspTestCase class that your test case can extend for unit testing Taglibs or any Java classes that make use of JSP API objects. In addition, a TestJspTagLifecycle extension is provided to help test JSP Taglibs.
- Provides a FilterTestCase class that your test case can extend for unit testing Filters or any Java classes that make use of Filter API objects.
- Allows to run existing JUnit Test Case classes on the server side.
- Ability to unit test EJBs (including local interfaces) by calling them from a ServletTestCase, JspTestCase or FilterTestCase class.
- Supports internationalization.

JDemo

Home Page

Categories: Testing

Latest version: 1.2.1
Added 2007-05-19

Java demonstration framework.

JDemo's concept is similar to the one of JUnit. As supplement to test driven software development, JDemo provides a new approach of demo driven development: When developing software, you write short code snippets (demo cases) that use your new API. The demo then demonstrates both: how to use the API and what happens when you execute the code. So you can for example interactively test the usability of GUI components.
JDemo has convenience classes and methods to help to implement demos. The demos can then be launched from a Swing application called Demo Runner.
Demos can also be used for automatically taking screenshots for documentation purposes.

StrutsTestCase for JUnit

Home Page

Categories: Testing

Latest version: 2.1.3
Added 2006-05-18

Extension of the standard JUnit TestCase class that provides facilities for testing code based on the Struts framework.
StrutsTestCase provides both a mock object approach and a Cactus approach to actually run the Struts ActionServlet, allowing you to test your Struts code with or without a running servlet engine. Because StrutsTestCase uses the ActionServlet controller to test your code, you can test not only the implementation of your Action objects, but also your mappings, form beans, and forwards declarations. And because StrutsTestCase already provides validation methods, it's quick and easy to write unit test cases.

JMeter

Categories: Profiling - Debugging, Testing

Author: Apache Jakarta

Latest version: 2.3.4
Added 2005-01-28Updated 2008-01-26

Apache JMeter is a 100% pure Java desktop application designed to load test functional behavior and measure performance. It was originally designed for testing Web Applications but has since expanded to other test functions.

Apache JMeter may be used to test performance both on static and dynamic resources (files, Servlets, Perl scripts, Java Objects, Data Bases and Queries, FTP Servers and more). It can be used to simulate a heavy load on a server, network or object to test its strength or to analyze overall performance under different load types. You can use it to make a graphical analysis of performance or to test your server/script/object behavior under heavy concurrent load.

Features include:
- Can load and performance test HTTP and FTP servers as well as arbitrary database queries (via JDBC)
- Full Swing and lightweight component support (precompiled JAR uses packages javax.swing.* )
- Full multithreading framework allows concurrent sampling by many threads and simultaneous sampling of different functions by seperate thread groups
- Caching and offline analysis/replaying of test results
- Extensible:
- Pluggable samplers allow many testing capabilities
- Several load statistics may be choosen with pluggable timers
- Data analysis and visualization plugins allow extendibility as well as personalization
- Functions can be used to provide dynamic input to a test or provide data manipulation
- Scriptable samplers (BeanShell is fully supported; and there is a sampler which supports BSF-compatible languages)

ConTest

Home Page

Categories: Testing

Author: IBM

Latest version: 2.6.4
Added 2007-11-14

ConTest (ConcurrentTesting) is tool for testing multi-threaded applications.

The main use of ConTest is to expose and eliminate concurrency-related bugs in parallel and distributed Java programs. ConTest systematically and transparently schedules the execution of program threads such that program scenarios that are likely to contain race conditions, deadlocks, and other intermittent bugs (collectively called synchronization problems) are forced to appear with high frequency.
ConTest's impact on the testing effort is minimal. Testers can rerun existing test suites without recompilation of the software under test (but with a greater probability of uncovering synchronization problems).
ConTest can also be used to measure test coverage, aid in debugging, enable replay, and present deadlock information.

JUnit Max

Categories: Testing

Author: Three Rivers Institute

Eclipse plug-in that helps programmers stay focused on coding by running tests and reporting results unobtrusively.
Every time you save a Java file, Max will run your tests and report errors like compile errors. In addition, Max runs the tests most likely to fail first, so you only have to pay close attention to test results for a second before getting back to coding, even if you have a long-running test suite.
