Steve Huston commented on QPID-5307:
------------------------------------

I agree - #2 is better from my point of view,

As far as organizing how this all gets done... maybe add a comment here when 
you start working on a script? Alan, do you have time to convert one test to 
python we can use as an example?

> Change test scripts to cross-platform language

> The C++ tree's test suite drivers are primarily shell scripts. Many were 
> duplicated as Windows PowerShell scripts along the way. However, not all 
> scripts were PowerShell-ized, and the dual set of test scripts is not 
> maintained in sync. Someone (Cliff?) suggested a while back that the test 
> driver scripts be written in a common language across Linux and Windows, and 
> for other platforms as well.
> Python, Perl, Ruby are all possible choices - python and ruby need to be on 
> build systems anyway for code generation. What do people think about a) this 
> idea in general, b) language to use?
