Test Environment Toolkit in short TET, is a multi-platform uniform test scaffold, into which non-distributed and distributed test suites can be incorporated.

TET supports tests written in C, C++, Perl, Tcl, Shell (sh, bash, and POSIX shell), Python, Ruby, and Korn Shell.

Installation:

Typical installation is as follows:

Install a .profile for the test suite user

Example:

TET_ROOT=/home/tet
PATH=$PATH:$TET_ROOT/bin
export TET_ROOT PATH

To configure TET3

cd $TET_ROOT
sh configure -t lite # for TETware lite
cd src
make install

(the final command below is not necessary)

make compat # for backwards compatibility for include directories

If the build fails check the makefiles in src/defines

Note: some Make utilities may have trouble with the include directive, this is a known problem on BSDI systems. In this case use GNU Make (gmake). Version 3.75 and higher is known to work.

What's New in This Release:
This is a full source release. It features both non-distributed (TET3-Lite) and distributed (Distributed TET3) functionality.
This includes a bundled contrib distribution in the "contrib" directory.
New API support includes the Java API, Ruby, Python, PHP-CLI, Tcl, and a POSIX 1003.1-2001 shell API.
A new report writer (grw) is also included.
