Framework For Integrated Test: Open-Source

Framework for Integrated Test (Fit) is an open-source tool that automates customer testing by allowing customers to provide examples of how software should work in tables formatted with common business tools. These examples are then connected to the software via programmer-written test fixtures to automatically check for correctness. Fit was created in 2002 by Ward Cunningham as a Java tool, and has since expanded to other languages including C#, Python, Perl, PHP and Smalltalk.

Framework for integrated test

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

  (Redirected from Framework for Integrated Tests)

Jump to navigationJump to search


Framework for Integrated Test, or "Fit", is an open-source (GNU GPL v2[1]) tool for
automated customer tests. It integrates the work of customers, analysts, testers, and
developers.
Customers provide examples of how their software should work. Those examples are
then connected to the software with programmer-written test fixtures and automatically
checked for correctness. The customers' examples are formatted in tables and saved
as HTML using ordinary business tools such as Microsoft Excel. When Fit checks the
document, it creates a copy and colors the tables green, red, and yellow according to
whether the software behaved as expected.
Fit was invented by Ward Cunningham in 2002. He created the initial Java version of
Fit. As of June 2005, it has up-to-date versions
for Java, C#, Python, Perl, PHP and Smalltalk.
Although Fit is an acronym, the word "Fit" came first, making it a backronym. Fit is
sometimes italicized but should not be capitalized. In other words, "Fit" and "Fit" are
appropriate usage, but "FIT" is not.
Fit includes a simple command-line tool for checking Fit documents. There are third-
party front-ends available. Of these, FitNesse is the most popular. FitNesse is a
complete IDE for Fit that uses a Wiki for its front end. As of June 2005, FitNesse
had forked Fit, making it incompatible with newer versions of Fit, but plans were
underway to re-merge with Fit.
