Testing Status

This page is designed to keep GPSTk developers knowledgeable about what is currently available in the test suite, what will soon be in the test suite, and what long term plans testers have for the test suite. This page is still under development.

Testing Philosophy

Right now, GPSTk testing is focused on unit testing the classes that make up the GPSTk library. The goal of GPSTk unit testing is to isolate each class in the GPSTk library and prove that the code is reliable and that, if they do fail, they fail in a correct, identifiable way. For more information on Unit tests please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_testing. For more information on GPSTk testing please see TestingGPSTkBuilds^?.

Current Test Suite

This section is for tests that are currently in the GPSTk test suite on the Subversion repository.

Short Term Test Additions

This section is for tests that already have 50%-95% of the code written but have not been added to the Subversion repository. The timeframe for this section should be less than one month.

Long Term Test Additions

This section is for tests that have little to no code completed.
