      8  1.1.1.3  jmmv The Automated Testing Framework (ATF) is a collection of libraries and
      9  1.1.1.3  jmmv utilities designed to ease unattended application testing in the hands of
     10  1.1.1.3  jmmv developers and end users of a specific piece of software.
     11      1.1  jmmv 
     12  1.1.1.3  jmmv As regards developers, ATF provides the necessary means to easily create
     13  1.1.1.3  jmmv test suites composed of multiple test programs, which in turn are a
     14  1.1.1.3  jmmv collection of test cases.  It also attempts to simplify the debugging of
     15  1.1.1.3  jmmv problems when these test cases detect an error by providing as much
     16  1.1.1.3  jmmv information as possible about the failure.
     17      1.1  jmmv 
     18  1.1.1.3  jmmv As regards users, it simplifies the process of running the test suites and,
     19  1.1.1.3  jmmv in special, encourages end users to run them often: they do not need to
     20  1.1.1.3  jmmv have source trees around nor any other development tools installed to be
     21  1.1.1.3  jmmv able to certify that a given piece of software works on their machine as
     22  1.1.1.3  jmmv advertised.
