Tux.Net Test Harness (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/6/2010

Tux.Net is a lightweight managed test harness that supports both Windows Embedded CE-based devices and Windows-based desktop platforms. Tux.Net is written in C# and designed to run tests written in managed (.NET Framework) code on Windows Embedded CE-based devices. It is similar to the Tux harness, except that test cases in Tux.Net are implemented in managed assemblies rather than in native DLLs.

Specifically, Tux.Net is a test framework for:

  • Writing and executing test cases
    Tux.Net encourages test cases to adhere to a simple but flexible structure. This structure leads to test maintainability and makes test cases easy to execute with reliably-structured output.
  • Managing test logging
    Tux.Net provides facilities for managing logging output. When all test logging is directed toward one clearing-house for all log data, then regardless of how that data is redirected or processed, you can be sure it is all going to be there for analysis.
  • Managed test code
    Test cases written for Tux.Net are written in managed code. These test cases can be used to test managed or**native code, but Tux.Net will interface with your test cases themselves via managed code.
