Webunit is a framework for unit testing websites:
Features in a nutshell:
1. Browser-like page fetching including fetching the images and stylesheets
needed for a page and following redirects
2. Cookies stored and trackable (all automatically handled)
3. HTTP, HTTPS, GET, POST, basic auth all handled, control over expected status
codes, ...
4. DOM parsing of pages to retrieve and analyse structure, including simple
form re-posting
5. Two-line page-fetch followed by form-submit possible, with error checking
6. Ability to register error page content across multiple tests
7. Uses python's standard unittest module as the underlying framework
Ruby/AWS is a Ruby language library that allows programmatic access to
the popular Amazon Web site via the REST (XML over HTTP) based Amazon
Web Services. It is the successor to the now obsolete Ruby/Amazon.
Erubis is a fast, secure, and very extensible implementation of eRuby.
eRuby means "embedded Ruby" in documents.
Embedded patterns are '<% statement %>' and '<%= expression %>'.
The following is an example of eRuby. '<% ... %>' means Ruby statement
and '<%= ... %>' means Ruby expression.
Sahi is an automation tool to test web applications. Sahi injects
javascript into web pages using a proxy and the javascript helps
automate web applications.
Sahi is a tester friendly tool. It abstracts out most difficulties
that testers face while automating web applications. Some salient
features include excellent recorder, platform and browser independence,
no XPaths, no waits, multithreaded playback, excellent Java interaction
and inbuilt reporting.
samidare is a web page update checker
Features:
* Easy configuration: just list up URLs.
* HTML generation by template.
* tDiary theme supported.
* generate/read LIRS.
* check page content addition to Last-Modified.
sitecopy is for copying locally stored websites to remote web servers.
The program will upload files to the server which have changed locally,
and delete files from the server which have been removed locally, to keep
the remote site synchronized with the local site, with a single command.
The aim is to remove the hassle of uploading and deleting individual files
using an FTP client. sitecopy will also optionally try to spot files you move
locally, and move them remotely.
sitecopy is designed to not care about what is actually on the remote
server - it simply keeps a record of what it THINKS is in on the remote
server, and works from that. WebDAV can be used to maintain remote sites
as well as FTP.
Speedtest.net Mini is a package that allows to free speed test on
your own server that uses the same technology as Speedtest.net.
phpMp is a web interface for Music Player Daemon (MPD) which allows
remote control of MPD. For example, to control a housewide stereo system
from multiple locations.
This is a pure-Tcl implementation of an HTTP protocol server. It runs as
a script on top of a vanilla Tcl interpreter using tcllib scripts and,
optionally, two binary libraries (crypt and limit).
The Tcl I/O system provides event-driven I/O facilities and a primitive
that copies data from one I/O channel to another. The server does the
HTTP protocol handling and then simply directs the I/O system to blast
data from disk to a network socket. The server has suprisingly good
performance because of Tcl's sophisticated I/O system.
The HTTP protocol is perhaps the least interesting aspect of the server.
The cool stuff is the framework for generating dynamic page content, and
the support for embedding the server directly into legacy applications
to "web-enable" them.
A Tcl-based web server is ideal for embedding because Tcl was designed
to support embedding into other applications. The interpreted nature of
Tcl allows dynamic reconfiguration of the server. Once the core
interface between the web server and the hosting application is defined,
it is possible to manage the web server, upload Safe-Tcl control
scripts, download logging information, and otherwise debug the Tcl part
of the application without restarting the hosting application.
thttpd is a simple, small, portable, fast, and secure HTTP server.
- Simple: It handles only the minimum necessary to implement HTTP/1.1.
- Small: It also has a very small run-time size, since it does not fork
and is very careful about memory allocation.
- Portable: It compiles cleanly on SunOS 4.1.x, Solaris 2.x, BSD/OS 2.x,
Linux 1.2.x, and OSF/1 (on a 64-bit Alpha).
- Fast: In typical use it's about as fast as the best full-featured
servers (Apache, NCSA, Netscape). Under extreme load it's much faster.
- Secure: It goes to great lengths to protect the web server machine
against attacks and breakins from other sites.
It also has one extremely useful feature (URL-traffic-based throttling) that
no other server currently has.
