Requirements Testing Examples

The XUnit framework approach to writing test cases is still the most common way of implementing automated tests, but there are already a number of examples of mini languages and formats for web testing:

Feed Parser Test Suite

The XML files from the Feed Parser Test Suite created by Mark Pilgrim are prefixed with a comment containing a description and expectation, decoupling the test assertions from imperative code:

<!--
Description: Atom namespace (official)
Expect:      bozo and feed['title'] == u'Example Atom'
-->

<!--
Description: entry contributor homepage
Expect:      bozo and entries[0]['contributors'][0]['url'] == u'http://example.com/'
-->

Canoo WebTest

Canoo WebTest runs test steps defined in the Ant XML format:

 <target name="login" > 
  <webtest name="normal" >
