The 6.3 release of EiffelStudio will come with a new testing tool combining unit and system level testing. The tool is currently under development but is already capable of managing, creating and executing tests. At this point I would like to give a short overview on what has been implemented, how to tool is used and what functionality will be added in the upcoming weeks.

Dear all:

we have just released CDD (short for Contract Driven Development) for EiffelStudio Beta1. CDD brings full unit test support (including IDE integration) to EiffelStudio. It adds support for a novel kind of test cases, so called extracted test cases: when an exception is thrown it automatically creates a new test case which is able to reproduce the observed failure.
