Introduction

Tool Summary

TextTest is an application-independent tool for text-based functional testing. This means running a batch-mode binary in lots of different ways, and using the text output produced as a means of controlling the behavior of that application.
We are warm adherents of Agile Development practices, and practitioners of Extreme Programming. We believe that the Agile movement has improved the software quality situation a great deal, by moving testing to the center of the development process and making developers directly responsible for verifying the quality of their code.

Getting Started

The first part is to download TextTest itself from the sourceforge project page.. You can then unzip this anywhere and run it from that location.

Compulsory dependencies

Python. You will need at least version 2.6. Note that most Linux installations come with Python pre-installed.

PyGTK. TextTest's GUI makes use of PyGTK, which is a thin wrapper around the C GUI library GTK. You will need at least GTK 2.18 and an equivalent version of PyGTK. All development is currently being done against GTK 2.18 and PyGTK 2.16.
Tkdiff and diff. You will need a decent graphical difference tool on your PATH, along with a textual version for reports.
Emacs and notepad. TextTest also makes use of a generic editor for viewing files.

Things you might want to install - For viewing test files while they are running, there is a menu option to display a window with live updates of the file. On UNIX this defaults to using 'xterm -e tail -f'. On Windows there is a nice equivalent called baretail which is TextTest's default. You can download it from Bare Metal Software's site.

Things you need to set - TextTest uses a root directory where it starts to look for tests, determined primarily by the environment variable TEXTTEST_HOME. This is the first thing determined by TextTest on being called and not much will happen if it isn't set. You are strongly recommended to pick an existing root directory for all your tests and set TEXTTEST_HOME to this directory in some persistent way.
