Introduction
|
|
************
|
|
|
|
The Automated Testing Framework (ATF) is a collection of libraries to
|
|
implement test programs in a variety of languages. At the moment, ATF
|
|
offers C, C++ and POSIX shell bindings with which to implement tests.
|
|
These bindings all offer a similar set of functionality and any test
|
|
program written with them exposes a consistent user interface.
|
|
|
|
ATF-based test programs rely on a separate runtime engine to execute them.
|
|
The runtime engine is in charge of isolating the test programs from the
|
|
rest of the system to ensure that their results are deterministic and that
|
|
they cannot affect the running system. The runtime engine is also
|
|
responsible for gathering the results of all tests and composing reports.
|
|
The current runtime of choice is Kyua.
