    Parasoft

    Parasoft

    Parasoft

    Parasoft C/C++test provides a built-in, end-to-end unit testing framework that automatically generates tests, mocks, stubs, and assertions to isolate the unit under test, and detects failures, unsatisfied expectations, and coverage gaps in real time during execution. Tests can be created via graphical editors, guided workflows, and the Test Case Explorer, and run on host, simulator, or target hardware to meet safety-critical requirements. Unlike tools that store test inputs in proprietary formats, C/C++test generates test cases as source code, with parameter values initialized the same way as in production, keeping tests reviewable and version-controllable. It also integrates with open-source frameworks like GoogleTest, Boost.Test, and CppUnit to add structural coverage (statement, branch, MC/DC), reporting, and CI/CD automation.

    Diffblue Cover
    Diffblue Cover analyzes your existing Java program and writes unit regression tests that reflect the current behavior of the code. The CLI tool works 100% autonomously, configuring itself from your Maven or Gradle environment. By bringing automation to the test-writing process, the CLI tool provides a speed boost for organizations that are working towards achieving DevOps goals like CI/CD. Since it fits into a CI pipeline, the CLI tool protects the whole codebase from regressions by shifting testing left. Diffblue Cover's unit regression tests run fast and verify new code changes immediately, helping users detect undesirable changes in the code’s behavior as early as possible, when they're the quickest, easiest, and cheapest to fix. And tests are automatically maintained, saving teams even more time.

    QUnit

    QUnit

    QUnit

    The powerful, easy-to-use JavaScript testing framework. Easy, zero-configuration setup for any Node.js project and minimal configuration for browser-based projects. Tests can be run anywhere; Node, your browser, even inside a web worker. Test your code where it runs. Flexible APIs for custom assertions, runners, and reporters mean you can extend QUnit to fit your needs. Getting started with QUnit for Node.js projects is quick and easy. First, install the QUnit package using npm. You can now run the test suite through the QUnit CLI. It is recommended that you run the QUnit command via an npm script, which will find the QUnit command automatically from your local dependencies. Check out the API documentation to learn more about the QUnit APIs for organizing tests and making assertions.QUnit follows the Node.js Long-term Support (LTS) schedule and provides support for current, active LTS, and maintenance LTS releases.

    Mocha

    Mocha

    Mocha

    Mocha runs in the browser. Every release of Mocha will have new builds of ./mocha.js and ./mocha.css for use in the browser. By adding an argument (usually named done) to it() to a test callback, Mocha will know that it should wait for this function to be called to complete the test. This callback accepts both an Error instance (or subclass thereof) or a falsy value; anything else is invalid usage and throws an error (usually causing a failed test). These reporters expect Mocha to know how many tests it plans to run before execution. This information is unavailable in parallel mode, as test files are loaded only when they are about to be run. In serial mode, tests results will “stream” as they occur. In parallel mode, reporter output is buffered; reporting will occur after each file is completed. In practice, the reporter output will appear in “chunks” (but will otherwise be identical). If a test file is particularly slow, there may be a significant pause while it’s running.

    Scapy

    Scapy

    Scapy

    Scapy is a powerful interactive packet manipulation program. It is able to forge or decode packets of a wide number of protocols, send them on the wire, capture them, match requests and replies, and much more. It can easily handle most classical tasks like scanning, tracerouting, probing, unit tests, attacks, or network discovery (it can replace hping, 85% of nmap, arpspoof, arp-sk, arping, tcpdump, tshark, p0f, etc.). It also performs very well at a lot of other specific tasks that most other tools can’t handle, like sending invalid frames, injecting your own 802.11 frames, combining technics (VLAN hopping+ARP cache poisoning, VOIP decoding on WEP encrypted channel), etc. Scapy runs natively on Linux, Windows, OSX, and on most Unixes with libpcap. The same code base now runs natively on both Python 2 and Python 3. Scapy development uses the Git version control system. Scapy reference repository is hosted on GitHub.

    Telerik JustMock

    Telerik JustMock

    Progress Telerik

    JustMock allows you to easily isolate your testing scenario and lets you focus on the logic you want to verify. It integrates seamlessly with your favorite unit testing framework and makes unit testing and mocking simple and fast. Mock everything like non-virtual methods, sealed classes, static methods and classes, as well as non-public members and types everywhere even members of MsCorLib. The perfect tool for unit testing your .NET code whether you're dealing with complex and hard to maintain legacy code or code written with best practices in mind. From finding what arguments your mock object is called with to why it’s not called or why it’s called repeatedly, the JustMock Debug Window helps you find the answers you are looking for while debugging your unit tests. JustMock allows you to receive critical feedback about the completeness and thoroughness of your unit tests—an absolute must for any organization that strives for high-quality code.

    PHPUnit

    PHPUnit

    PHPUnit

    PHPUnit requires the dom and json extensions, which are normally enabled by default. PHPUnit also requires the pcre, reflection, and spl extensions. These standard extensions are enabled by default and cannot be disabled without patching PHP’s build system and/or C sources. The code coverage report feature requires the Xdebug (2.7.0 or later) and tokenizer extensions. Generating XML reports requires the xmlwriter extension. Unit Tests are primarily written as a good practice to help developers identify and fix bugs, to refactor code and to serve as documentation for a unit of software under test. To achieve these benefits, unit tests ideally should cover all the possible paths in a program. One unit test usually covers one specific path in one function or method. However a test method is not necessarily an encapsulated, independent entity. Often there are implicit dependencies between test methods, hidden in the implementation scenario of a test.

    Jasmine

    Jasmine

    Jasmine

    Jasmine attempts as best as possible to follow semantic versioning. This means we reserve major versions (1.0, 2.0, etc.) for breaking changes or other significant work. Most Jasmine releases end up being minor releases (2.3, 2.4, etc.). Major releases are very infrequent. Jasmine generally avoids dropping support for browser or Node versions except in major releases. The exceptions to this are Node versions that are past end of life, browsers that we can no longer install locally and/or test against in our CI builds, browsers that no longer receive security updates, and browsers that only run on operating systems that no longer receive security updates. We’ll make reasonable efforts to keep Jasmine working in those environments but won’t necessarily do a major release if they break.
