InSpec provides a framework for creating end-to-end infrastructure tests. You can use it for integration or even compliance testing. Create fully portable test profiles and use them in your workflow to ensure stability and security. Integrate InSpec in your change lifecycle for local testing, CI/CD, and deployment verification. Packaged distributions of Progress® Chef® products obtained from RubyGems are made available pursuant to the Progress Chef EULA at https://www.chef.io/end-user-license-agreement, unless there is an executed agreement in effect between you and Progress that covers the Progress Chef products ("Master Agreement"), in which case the Master Agreement shall govern. Source code obtained from the Chef GitHub repository is made available under Apache-2.0, a copy of which is included.

The TestCentricity™ Web core framework for desktop and mobile web browser-based app testing implements a Page Object Model DSL for use with Cucumber or RSpec, and Selenium-Webdriver. The gem also facilitates the configuration of the appropriate Selenium-Webdriver capabilities required to establish connections to locally hosted desktop browsers, locally hosted emulated mobile browsers (iOS, Android, etc.) running within a local instance of Chrome, mobile Safari browsers on iOS device simulators or physical iOS devices, mobile Chrome browsers on Android Studio virtual device emulators, or cloud hosted desktop or mobile web browsers (using BrowserStack, Sauce Labs, TestingBot, or LambdaTest services).

== Ocean Ocean is an application template and an architecture for creating server-oriented architectures (SOAs) in the cloud. Ocean is a complete and extremely scalable back end solution for RESTful JSON web services and web applications, featuring aggressive caching and full HTTP client abstraction. Ocean fully implements HATEOAS principles, allowing the programming object model to move fully out onto the net, while maintaining a very high degree of decoupling. Ocean is also a development, staging and deployment pipeline featuring continuous integration and testing in a TDD and/or BDD environment. Ocean can be used for continuous deployment or for scheduled releases. Front end tests are run in parallel using a matrix of operating systems and browser types. The pipeline can very easily be extended with new development branches and quality assurance environments with automatic testing and deployment. Together, Ocean allows you to code front end clients completely independently of browser type and OS, and back end code completely agnostic of whether it is called by a client browser or another server system.

Selenium implements the W3C WebDriver protocol to automate popular browsers. It aims to mimic the behaviour of a real user as it interacts with the application's HTML. It's primarily intended for web application testing, but any web-based task can automated.

Hoe is a rake/rubygems helper for project Rakefiles. It helps you manage, maintain, and release your project and includes a dynamic plug-in system allowing for easy extensibility. Hoe ships with plug-ins for all your usual project tasks including rdoc generation, testing, packaging, deployment, and announcement. See class rdoc for help. Hint: `ri Hoe` or any of the plugins listed below. For extra goodness, see: http://docs.seattlerb.org/hoe/Hoe.pdf

minitest provides a complete suite of testing facilities supporting TDD, BDD, mocking, and benchmarking. "I had a class with Jim Weirich on testing last week and we were allowed to choose our testing frameworks. Kirk Haines and I were paired up and we cracked open the code for a few test frameworks... I MUST say that minitest is *very* readable / understandable compared to the 'other two' options we looked at. Nicely done and thank you for helping us keep our mental sanity." -- Wayne E. Seguin minitest/test is a small and incredibly fast unit testing framework. It provides a rich set of assertions to make your tests clean and readable. minitest/spec is a functionally complete spec engine. It hooks onto minitest/test and seamlessly bridges test assertions over to spec expectations. minitest/benchmark is an awesome way to assert the performance of your algorithms in a repeatable manner. Now you can assert that your newb co-worker doesn't replace your linear algorithm with an exponential one! minitest/mock by Steven Baker, is a beautifully tiny mock (and stub) object framework. minitest/pride shows pride in testing and adds coloring to your test output. I guess it is an example of how to write IO pipes too. :P minitest/test is meant to have a clean implementation for language implementors that need a minimal set of methods to bootstrap a working test suite. For example, there is no magic involved for test-case discovery. "Again, I can't praise enough the idea of a testing/specing framework that I can actually read in full in one sitting!" -- Piotr Szotkowski Comparing to rspec: rspec is a testing DSL. minitest is ruby. -- Adam Hawkins, "Bow Before MiniTest" minitest doesn't reinvent anything that ruby already provides, like: classes, modules, inheritance, methods. This means you only have to learn ruby to use minitest and all of your regular OO practices like extract-method refactorings still apply.

Watir stands for Web Application Testing In Ruby It facilitates the writing of automated tests by mimicing the behavior of a user interacting with a website.
