Open Source Linux Software Testing Tools

Cinemagoer is a Python package useful to retrieve and manage the data of the IMDb movie database about movies, people, characters and companies. Platform-independent, it can retrieve data from both the IMDb's web server and a local copy of the whole db.

ATrace is a tracing tool uses the ptrace interface. ATrace allows tuning and troubleshooting of applications without modification of the source or object code and can be parameterized via config files and logs the addresses of executed instructions.

DbgProfiler provides an easy mechanism for profiling certain hotspots of an application by just adding a few macros to the C++ source code. A hierarchy of the callers and callees is generated automatically and allows a detailed analysis of the results.

EfficiencyGuardian extracts callgrind efficiency measures from individual CppUnit test cases to detect efficiency regresion. It includes a data mining web tool to browse historic results and TestFarm integration for unattended execution on commit.

Foo Test is a small, fast C-function unit testing project. It is capable of both benchmarking and validating C-functions while writing most of the test code through an easy perl script, and all the developer needed code can be added to a single file.

A Python programming environment providing memory sizing, profiling and analysis, and a specification language that can formally specify aspects of Python programs and generate tests and documentation from a common source.

It's a integrated performance analysis tool with GUI, which is integrated with various utilities such as strace, Gcov, Gprof, proc etc which are open released and are for analyzing performance of linux system

The project is designed to make life easier for programmers using javascript. Updated trace panel(disegner will work on it later :) ). And one issue with IE6. Compatible with IE7+, Chrome, FF2+, Opera(?)

Jarrut is a tool that makes developing and debugging Java ME applications (application using CLDC to be more specific) a bit less of a pain. Jarrut enables proper stack traces for exceptions, also when running a MIDlet on a real device

Premier is a software performance testing framework based on Performance Requirements Evolution Model.

The sandbox libraries (libsandbox & pysandbox) are an open-source suite of software components for C/C++ and Python developers to create automated profiling tools and watchdog programs. The API's are designed for executing and instrumenting simple (single process) tasks, featuring policy-based behavioral auditing, resource quota, and statistics collecting. The sandbox libraries were originally designed and utilized as the core security module of a full-fledged online judge system for ACM/ICPC training. They have since then evolved into a general-purpose tool for binary program testing, profiling, and security restriction. The sandbox libraries are currently maintained by the OpenJudge Alliance (http://openjudge.net/) as a standalone, open-source project to facilitate various assignment grading solutions for IT/CS education. See project page at https://github.com/openjudge/sandbox for details.

This provides an interactive, programmer-friendly interface to VMware's VProbes facility. VProbes is a safe, dynamic technology for instrumenting software running in virtual machines, and the software stack itself.

cpuplot Command Line Profiler of CPU Usage and Load Average. Synopsis: BASH script that shows the history of CPU usage, and what procces uses the most CPU at a given time. Bar graphs represent the percentage of Total CPU Usage, and the percentage of Total 1 Minute Load Average. Default wait interval between system readings is 5secs. But a different one can be set in the command line with the "-i" argument. Default output is formatted for the standard console width of 80 columns, and will show only the bar chart for the CPU usage. To change this, use the "-w" argument explained below in the "usage" section. Developer: Ismael Antadillas BSD 3 License Usage: cpuplot -i [seconds] -w [small medium large xlarge]

Simple monitoring utility to help optimizing a (MySQL) database server. Run the utility for a time to record queries on the database. Generate reports while the utility is running or afterwards. Reports are available as text or excel-sheets.
