autest 1.7.4

Reusable gold file testing system

Reusable Gold testing system, or autest for short, is a testing system targeted toward gold file, command line process testing.

Goals

• Easy to write and add tests
• Extensible system to allow:

• Adding new functionality for testing your application
• Batch commands as a new function to make it easier to write tests
• Define custom report outputs

• Precise as possible error messages to make it easy to see what is wrong fast
• Sandbox to make it easy to see what failed and reproduce out of test system
• Flexible gold file syntax to make it easier to ignore text that is not important
• Run on python 2 or 3

Non-Goals

The Reusable Gold testing system is not about making another unit testing framework.
