Trapeze

Trapeze generates a suite of unit tests or specifications for existing Ruby source code. This is accomplished through dynamic analysis, by reflecting on the public interfaces of classes, modules and top-level methods defined in the source. Trapeze ... [More] then exercises each object, module and method, recording the behavior of the code. This recorded behavior is captured in a suite of test cases or specifications that can be rendered as test code or executable specifications. In essence, Trapeze is a tool for characterizing Ruby source code. Trapeze lets you fly high as you maintain and enhance a Ruby codebase that lacks test or spec coverage, knowing that you have a regression safety net underneath you. [Less]

Scooter

Scooter is composed of several parts. Mostly, it is an API for XML manipulation designed for the Ruby programming language. A library implementing this API is well underway. Furthermore, there is a specified API for interacting with a web browser ... [More] (bookmarks and such). That is unlikely to be implemented in the near future due to technical limitations. Additionally, there is an effort to use the Scooter API to develop applications with GUI toolkits such as gtk, wxruby, and fxruby. Work on this has been slow. [Less]

Specter BDD Framework

Specter is an object-behaviour specification framework for .NET. It enables behaviour-driven development by requiring developers to write executable specifications for their objects, before actually implementing them. Technologically this is ... [More] similar to test driven development, however the shift in nomenclature removes the psychological barrier of writing "tests" for code that does not exist. (Existing projects implementing this idea include RSpec for Ruby and NSpec for .NET) Specter uses Boo meta-programming features and therefore allows very readable specifications to be written.

NBehave

NBehave is a framework for Behaviour-Driven Development in C#. Behaviour-driven development (BDD) is an evolution of test-driven development (TDD) and acceptance-test driven design, and is intended to make these practices more accessible and ... [More] intuitive to newcomers and experts alike. It shifts the vocabulary from being test-based to behaviour-based, and positions itself as a design philosophy. [Less]
