Generic software Testing Meta Language 17.38 KB built 2026-10-17 01:45:20 GMT

Description

TestML <http://www.testml.org/> is a generic, programming language agnostic, meta language for writing unit tests. The idea is that you can use the same test files in multiple implementations of a given programming idea. Then you can be more certain that your application written in, say, Python matches your Perl implementation. In a nutshell you write a bunch of data tests that have inputs and expected results. Using a simple syntax, you specify what functions the data must pass through to produce the expected results. You use a bridge class to write the data functions that pass the data through your application. In Perl 5, TestML module is the evolution of the Test::Base module. It has a superset of Test:Base's goals. The data markup syntax is currently exactly the same as Test::Base. Currently, TestML is being redesigned. This package contains the new unstable implementation. The original, production-ready, implementation is available under TestML1 name in perl-TestML1 package.
