JUnit 5
Programmer-friendly testing framework for Java and the JVM
The 5th major version of the programmer-friendly testing framework for Java and the JVM. JUnit 5 is the next generation of JUnit. The goal is to create an up-to-date foundation for developer-side testing on the JVM. This includes focusing on Java 8 and above, as well as enabling many different styles of testing. Official CI build server for JUnit 5. Used to perform quick checks on submitted pull requests and for build matrices including the latest released OpenJDK and early access builds of the next OpenJDK. The JUnit Platform serves as a foundation for launching testing frameworks on the JVM. It also defines the TestEngine API for developing a testing framework that runs on the platform. Furthermore, the platform provides a Console Launcher to launch the platform from the command line and the JUnit Platform Suite Engine for running a custom test suite using one or more test engines on the platform. First-class support for the JUnit Platform also exists in popular IDEs. -

JUnit 4
A programmer-oriented testing framework for Java
JUnit is a simple framework to write repeatable tests. It is an instance of the xUnit architecture for unit testing frameworks. You need to have a JDK installed and a text editor. (In general it is recommended to use a build tool for building your software and running the tests.). JUnit features include assertions for testing expected results, test fixtures for sharing common test data, test runners for running tests. JUnit was originally written by Erich Gamma and Kent Beck. JUnit is Open Source Software, released under the Eclipse Public License Version 1.0. JUnit celebrates programmers testing their own software. In this spirit, bugs, patches, and feature requests that include JUnit tests have a better chance of being addressed than those without. -

GoogleTest
Google Testing and Mocking Framework
GoogleTest is Google's C++ mocking and test framework. It's used by many internal projects at Google, as well as a number of notable projects such as The Chromium projects, the OpenCV computer vision library, and the LLVM compiler. This GoogleTest project is actually a union of what used to be two separate projects: the old GoogleTest and GoogleMock, an extension of GoogleTest for writing and using C++ mock classes. Since they were so closely related, they were merged to create an even better GoogleTest. GoogleTest features an xUnit test framework, a rich set of assertions, user-defined assertions, death tests, among many others. It's been used on a variety of platforms, including Cygwin, Symbian, MinGW and PlatformIO. -

Mockito
Most popular Mocking framework for unit tests written in Java
Mockito downloads and instructions for setting up Maven, Gradle and other build systems are available from the Central Repository and Bintray. Mockito 3.x requires Java 8, but otherwise doesn’t introduce any breaking changes compared to the 2.x series. Mockito 2.25.0 had an important feature added for anyone using mockito-inline. In particular anyone using Kotlin (which demands using mockito-inline) and PowerMock (which exacerbates the problem even more) will want to add this to all of their test classes to avoid a large memory leak. Fancy getting world-wide visibility and building up an eternal fame of an OSS contributor? Use the latest version! Hack and experiment. Speak up at the mailing list. Mockito is a mocking framework that tastes really good. It lets you write beautiful tests with a clean & simple API. Mockito doesn’t give you hangover because the tests are very readable and they produce clean verification errors. -

Catch2
A modern, C++-native, test framework for unit-tests, TDD and BDD
A modern, C++-native, test framework for unit-tests, TDD and BDD - using C++14, C++17 and later (C++11 support is in v2.x branch, and C++03 on the Catch1.x branch). Catch2 is mainly a unit testing framework for C++, but it also provides basic micro-benchmarking features and simple BDD macros. Catch2's main advantage is that using it is both simple and natural. Test names do not have to be valid identifiers, assertions look like normal C++ boolean expressions, and sections provide a nice and local way to share set-up and tear-down code in tests. You are on the devel branch, where the v3 version is being developed. v3 brings a bunch of significant changes, the big one being that Catch2 is no longer a single-header library. Catch2 now behaves as a normal library, with multiple headers and separately compiled implementation. -

Criterion
A cross-platform C and C++ unit testing framework for the 21st century
Most test frameworks for C require a lot of boilerplate code to set up tests and test suites -- you need to create a main, then register new test suites, then register the tests within these suites, and finally call the right functions. This gives the user great control, at the unfortunate cost of simplicity. Criterion follows the KISS principle, while keeping the control the user would have with other frameworks. Supports parameterized tests and theories. Progress and statistics can be followed in real time with report hooks. TAP output format can be enabled with an option. Runs on Linux, FreeBSD, macOS, and Windows (Compiling with MinGW GCC and Visual Studio 2015+). If you'd like to see Criterion included in your favorite distribution, please reach out to their package maintainers team. A default entry point is provided, no need to declare a main unless you want to do special handling. -

CEF Python
Python bindings for the Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF)
Python bindings for the Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF). CEF Python is an open source project founded by Czarek Tomczak in 2012 to provide Python bindings for the Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF). The Chromium project focuses mainly on Google Chrome application development while CEF focuses on facilitating embedded browser use cases in third-party applications. Lots of applications use CEF control, there are more than 100 million CEF instances installed around the world. There are numerous use cases for CEF. Use it as a modern HTML5 based rendering engine that can act as a replacement for classic desktop GUI frameworks. Think of it as Electron for Python. Embed a web browser widget in a classic Qt / GTK / wxPython desktop application. Use it for automated testing of web applications with more advanced capabilities than Selenium web browser automation due to CEF low level programming APIs. -

Ginkgo
BDD testing framework for Go
Ginkgo is a Go testing framework built to help you efficiently write expressive and comprehensive tests using Behavior-Driven Development (“BDD”) style. It is best paired with the Gomega matcher library but is designed to be matcher-agnostic. These docs are written assuming you’ll be using Gomega with Ginkgo. They also assume you know your way around Go and have a good mental model for how Go organizes packages under $GOPATH. Ginkgo is tested against Go v1.6 and newer To install Go, follow the installation instructions. An empty test suite is not very interesting. While you can start to add tests directly into books_suite_test.go you’ll probably prefer to separate your tests into separate files (especially for packages with multiple files). Ginkgo builds on Go's testing package, allowing expressive Behavior-Driven Development ("BDD") style tests. It is typically (and optionally) paired with the Gomega matcher library. -

Terratest
Go library that makes it easier to write automated tests
Terratest is a Go library that provides patterns and helper functions for testing infrastructure, with 1st-class support for Terraform, Packer, Docker, Kubernetes, AWS, GCP, and more. Create a file ending in _test.go and run tests with the go test command. E.g., go test my_test.go. Use Terratest to execute your real IaC tools (e.g., Terraform, Packer, etc.) to deploy real infrastructure (e.g., servers) in a real environment (e.g., AWS). Use the tools built into Terratest to validate that the infrastructure works correctly in that environment by making HTTP requests, API calls, SSH connections, etc. Undeploy everything at the end of the test. Write automated tests for infrastructure code, including the code you write for use with tools such as Terraform, Kubernetes, Docker, and Packer. This code is released under the Apache 2.0 License. -

FORTRAN Unit Test Framework (FRUIT)
FORTRAN Unit Test Framework FRUIT - TDD in FORTRAN
FORTRAN Unit Test Framework, written in FORTRAN 95. So that all FORTRAN features can be tested. FRUIT has assertion, fixture, setup, teardown, report, spec, driver generation. Rake used as build tool. Tutorials at http://fortranxunit.wiki.sourceforge.net The core testing part is in FORTRAN, this part can be used independent of the Ruby codes. The Ruby code is to make fixtures and reports easier. Rake is to build the project elegantly. This project also demonstrate a new way to build mixed language code in an alternative way than Make. Most of the FORTRAN are important in nature, used in nuclear and aerospace codes, etc, and maintained and written actively. Please help to bring TDD practices to the FORTRAN community. The change could be very hard, personally, I quit, since I could not make the change. I hope your organization will be successful. Enjoy a cup of fruit while maintaining FORTRAN !

Aqueduct
Dart HTTP server framework for building REST APIs
Aqueduct is a modern Dart HTTP server framework. The framework is composed of libraries for handling and routing HTTP requests, object-relational mapping (ORM), authentication and authorization (OAuth 2.0 provider) and documentation (OpenAPI). These libraries are used to build scalable REST APIs that run on the Dart VM. An object-oriented, multi-threaded HTTP server framework written in Dart. Aqueduct is an extensible HTTP framework for building REST APIs on top of the Dart VM. It includes a statically-typed ORM, OAuth 2.0 provider, automated testing libraries, and OpenAPI 3.0 integration. Aqueduct's memory-isolated threads leverage every CPU without writing any code. No race conditions or complicated synchronization logic to worry about. A familiar, higher-order functional syntax makes application flow easy to construct and read. Powerful, statically typed queries enable code-completion and refactoring tools while minimizing error. -

Buildbot
Python-based continuous integration testing framework
Buildbot is an open-source framework for automating software build, test, and release processes. At its core, Buildbot is a job scheduling system: it queues jobs, executes the jobs when the required resources are available, and reports the results. Your Buildbot installation has one or more masters and a collection of workers. The masters monitor source-code repositories for changes, coordinate the activities of the workers, and report results to users and developers. Workers run on a variety of operating systems. You configure Buildbot by providing a Python configuration script to the master. This script can be very simple, configuring built-in components, but the full expressive power of Python is available. This allows dynamic generation of configuration, customized components, and anything else you can devise. The framework itself is implemented in Twisted Python, and compatible with all major operating systems. -

NUnit 3 Framework
NUnit 3 Framework
NUnit is a unit-testing framework for all .Net languages. Initially ported from JUnit, the current production release, version 3, has been completely rewritten with many new features and support for a wide range of .NET platforms. NUnit is intended to be extensible. We can't do everything for everybody but we want to make it reasonably easy to extend NUnit. In many cases, users will be able to implement a special feature outside of our scope by simply creating a new attribute that embeds the required logic. In other cases, particularly in extending the engine, we rely on a plugin architecture. When running tests in a separate process, the console and gui runners make use of the NUnit Agent program, nunit-agent.exe. Although not directly run by users, nunit-agent does load and execute tests and users need to be aware of it, especially when debugging is involved. -

Sinon.JS
Test spies, stubs and mocks for JavaScript
Standalone test spies, stubs and mocks for JavaScript. Works with any unit testing framework. As before, Sinon.JS provides utilities that help test frameworks reduce the boiler-plate. As of Sinon 10 we stopped maintaining compatibility with legacy browsers. Instead, we focus on compatibility with evergreen browsers, Node.js LTS versions and recent Safari versions. The most up-to-date reference on which runtimes and browsers we support can be found by looking at our compatibility docs. Fake timers are synchronous implementations of setTimeout and friends that Sinon.JS can overwrite the global functions with to allow you to more easily test code using them. A test spy is a function that records arguments, return value, the value of this and exception thrown (if any) for all its calls. There are two types of spies: Some are anonymous functions, while others wrap methods that already exist in the system under test. Mocks should only be used for the method under test. -

doctest
Fastest feature-rich C++11/14/17/20 single-header testing framework
doctest is a new C++ testing framework but is by far the fastest both in compile times (by orders of magnitude) and runtime compared to other feature-rich alternatives. It brings the ability of compiled languages such as D / Rust / Nim to have tests written directly in the production code thanks to a fast, transparent and flexible test runner with a clean interface. The framework is and will stay free but needs your support to sustain its development. There are lots of new features and maintenance to do. There are many C++ testing frameworks - Catch, Boost.Test, UnitTest++, cpputest, googletest and others. The key differences between it and other testing frameworks are that it is light and unintrusive. Ultra light on compile times both in terms of including the header and writing thousands of asserts. Doesn't produce any warnings even on the most aggressive warning levels for MSVC/GCC/Clang. -
