It sort of dropped off the map. Looks good, but looks like another cryogenic
project waiting for spring thaw.
It really hasn't needed to be changed that much since I released it, so I haven't. I'm still alive and as long as that is the case, cfcUnit will be around, frozen or not.
You have to install and configure Machii. (Let's say that XML files aren't a
deal breaker here... heh) It still is a big jump to not have a complete
solution. It makes sense that it needs to be written with some standard and
Machii is fine as the next for this type of task. It is ever frustrating to
have to learn a whole methodology to customize it. Yet, the plain fact is
that if it was written another way the same thing would be true but for
different people.
I have addressed the dependency on MachII in two ways. The first is that I have just bundled MachII into the installation of cfcUnit so that while it may run on top of the framework, you don't have to worry about installing it separately. The second solution was to write a non-MachII test runner application that will run without any external dependencies. These are both in CVS right now and need to be rolled into another release.
I want my tester (this would apply to both) to be able to generate a web
service, XML file or something so the testing could be entered into a
project tracking system.
This sounds like a feature request, and I'd be glad to hear more about it. Why not pop onto the cfcUnit mailing list and pose it there or send me an email.
(Q) Has the distribution changed? I was under the impression that CFCUnit
was going to be a pay for project rather than open source?
Will never be a commercial product. I don't think it would benefit anyone (even me) if anyone had to pay for it. Too much of a hassle and it would just hinder any sort of adoption.
Thoughts on CFUnit: http://cfunit.sourceforge.net/
I believe the type of CF files supported is broader here. (Wonder if they
will be supporting flash remoting .as files and such???)
While this is a different project, it sounds like this is another feature request. Let me know more.
