Bug#171545: ITP: libtest-unit-ruby -- A unit testing framework for the Rubylanguage



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : libtest-unit-ruby
  Version         : 0.1.4
  Upstread Author : Nathaniel Talbott <testunit@talbott.ws>

  Description     : A unit testing framework for the Ruby language

Test::Unit allows you to easily and flexibly write testing code for your
Ruby classes and modules. The general idea behind unit testing is that
you write a test method that makes certain assertions about your code,
working against a test fixture. A bunch of these test methods are
bundled up into a test suite and can be run any time the developer
wants. The results of a run are gathered in a test result and displayed
to the user through some UI. Test::Unit also has a compatibility layer
for RubyUnit, the old unit testing framework for Ruby.

Test::Unit is going to be included in Ruby 1.7 (at least I've heard that
a couple of times), so this package will depend on Ruby 1.6. The
RubyUnit layer will be enabled, so it will conflict with rubyunit.
