Free to test software for linux

TinyMe project exists to create a remaster of PCLinuxOS 2007 that will be quite slimmed down. The target is to get a functioning ~150MB ISO image that can provide a base installation for other MyPCLinuxOS projects, development, playing around, installation to old computers, where a minimal installation is all thats needed, and any other situations where a tiny Linux installation is required or desirable.
We want to create something that can compete with distros like Puppy, DSL, Feather, NimbleX, and PUD for speed and size while maintaining a similar level of functionality through the GUI.
Username/Password:
tiny/tiny
root/root
Enhancements:
- Fixed most open bugs. Only remaining major open bug (in my opinion) is that TinyMe still doesnt auto mount removable media.
- I switched to GDM. This allows us greater flexibility with our login manager. Also, it enables Shutdown and Reboot options on logout.
- AbiWord was installed, with all the plugins your heart desires. Create and edit ODT, DOC, WPD, and many other formats.
- Idesk now handles the desktop instead of PCManFM.
- Enabeled LXPanel transparency.
- Added Grafburn for burning CDs and DVDs. Thanks to Nathan Fisher of Grafpup for Grafburn.
- Created Welcome page. Fire up Opera to see it. (Did I mention Opera handles web browsing, mail, Bittorrent, and IRC chat?)
- Conky is a SuperKaramba-like desktop monitoring applet which has been added. GKrellm was fired. :-)
- Do you like music? Audacious was added. Audacious is a lot like WinAmp and you can use WinAmp themes on it.
- MEdit proved to be somewhat buggy. Although I rather liked it, I opted to use SciTE instead. Enjoy.
- Changed Mrxvt to the default terminal. Mrxvt is a tabbed terminal, plus it has some pretty cool transparency.
- Galculator is a quite small calculator added to test 5.
- Xarchiver has been added for its wonderous abilities to open just about any compressed archive, including RPMs and ISOs.
- MtPaint was added. MtPaint is a very basic picture editor. You can also use MtPaint to take a screenshot.
- XKill has been added and a menu entry created for those balky programs which hang on you.
- Tweaked overall look n feel some more. Added 2 wallpapers (okay, its 1 wallpaper; 1 is 4:3, the other 16:10)

The Test::Cmd module provides a low-level framework for portable automated testing of executable commands and scripts (in any language, not just Perl), especially commands and scripts that interact with the file system.

The Test::Cmd module makes no assumptions about what constitutes a successful or failed test. Attempting to read a file that doesnt exist, for example, may or may not be an error, depending on the software being tested.

Consequently, no Test::Cmd methods (including the new() method) exit, die or throw any other sorts of exceptions (but they all do return useful error indications). Exceptions or other error status should be handled by a higher layer: a subclass of Test::Cmd, or another testing framework such as the Test or Test::Simple Perl modules, or by the test itself.
(That said, see the Test::Cmd::Common module if you want a similar module that provides exception handling, either to use directly in your own tests, or as an example of how to use Test::Cmd.)

In addition to running tests and evaluating conditions, the Test::Cmd module manages and cleans up one or more temporary workspace directories, and provides methods for creating files and directories in those workspace directories from in-line data (that is, here-documents), allowing tests to be completely self-contained. When used in conjunction with another testing framework, the Test::Cmd module can function as a fixture (common startup code for multiple tests) for simple management of command execution and temporary workspaces.

The Test::Cmd module inherits File::Spec methods (file_name_is_absolute(), catfile(), etc.) to support writing tests portably across a variety of operating and file systems.

A Test::Cmd environment object is created via the usual invocation:

$test = Test::Cmd->new();

Arguments to the Test::Cmd::new method are keyword-value pairs that may be used to initialize the object, typically by invoking the same-named method as the keyword.

Test::Glade is a simple way to test Gtk2::GladeXML-based apps.

SYNOPSIS

use Test::Glade tests => 2;

my $glade_xml = interface.glade;
has_widget( $glade_xml, {
name => main_window,
type => GtkWindow,
properties => {
title => Test Application,
type => GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL,
resizable => 1,
},
} );

has_widget( $glade_xml, {
type => GtkButton,
properties => {label => Press me!},
signals => {clicked => button_pressed_handler},
} );

GUIs are notoriously difficult to test. Historically this was well deserved as the available perl GUI toolkits did not encourage separation of the view and controller layers. The introduction of the Glade GUI designer and Gtk2::GladeXML changed that by segregating user interface and logical components (into GladeXML and Perl files respectively).

Users who avoid creating GUI elements from within their application logic can now test each layer separately with appropriate tools. The Perl logic can be verified with standard unit tests and this module provides a way to inspect and verify the GladeXML UI specification. You can confirm that a given widget exists, that it has the correct label and other attributes, that it will be correctly placed in the interface and that it will respond to signals as expected.

Test-Run is an improved test harness for scripts that emit TAP (Test Anything Protocol). It was forked from Test::Harness, and it uses TAP::Parser.

The project is used to analyze the output of the scripts and present it to the user in a summarized form. Test-Run features separation of the test-running backend and the command line frontend, a "runprove" utility for running tests from the command line, a plugin-system, and colors for the summary line.

Test::ISBN is a Perl module to check international standard book numbers.

SYNOPSIS

use Test::More tests => 1;
use Test::ISBN;

isbn_ok( $isbn );

Functions

isbn_ok( STRING )

Ok is the STRING is a valid ISBN, in any format that Business::ISBN accepts. This function only checks the checksum. The publisher and country codes might be invalid even though the checksum is valid.

isbn_country_ok( STRING, COUNTRY )

Ok is the STRING is a valid ISBN and its country code is the same as COUNTRY.

isbn_publisher_ok( STRING, PUBLISHER )

Ok is the STRING is a valid ISBN and its publisher code is the same as PUBLISHER.

Test::Unit is the main PerlUnit testing framework.

SYNOPSIS

This package provides only the project version number, copyright texts, and a framework overview in POD format.

This framework is intended to support unit testing in an object-oriented development paradigm (with support for inheritance of tests etc.) and is derived from the JUnit testing framework for Java by Kent Beck and Erich Gamma. To start learning how to use this framework, see Test::Unit::TestCase and Test::Unit::TestSuite. (There will also eventually be a tutorial in Test::Unit::Tutorial.

However Test::Unit::Procedural is the procedural style interface to a sophisticated unit testing framework for Perl that . Test::Unit is intended to provide a simpler interface to the framework that is more suitable for use in a scripting style environment. Therefore, Test::Unit does not provide much support for an object-oriented approach to unit testing.

TAHI Test Suite provides a mechanism for validating an IPv6 implementation against a standardized test for conformance to the IPv6 specification, extensions and directly related protocols.
TAHI Project is the joint effort formed with the objective of developing and providing the verification technology for IPv6.
The growth process of IPv4 was the history of encountering various kinds of obstacles and conquering such obstacles. However, once the position as infrastructure was established, it is not allowed to repeat the same history. This is a reason why the verification technology is essential for IPv6 deployment.
We research and develop conformance tests and interoperability tests for IPv6.
We closely work with the KAME project and USAGI project. We help activities of them in the quality side by offering the verification technology we develop in the TAHI project and improve the development efficiency.
We open the results and fruits of the project to the public for FREE. Any developer concerned with IPv6 can utilize the results and fruits of TAHI project freely. A free software plays an important role in progress of the Internet. We believe that providing the verification technology for FREE contributes to advances of IPv6. Besides the programs, the specifications and criteria of verification will be included in the Package.
Enhancements:
- Minor bugfixes in hop count validation.
