[2002-11-19]
This is the initial release of the Erlang/OTP Test Server.

Disclaimer

The Erlang/OTP Test Server is not a product of Ericsson. It is an internal tool used at Ericsson in testing of the Erlang/OTP product. It is used in our automatic daily build and test.

Because this tool may be useful for other Erlang projects we releases the Erlang/OTP Test Server under the Erlang Public License (EPL).

We also release the source to some of our test suites that can serve as a starting point for writing your own test suites.

What is it?

You write test cases in Erlang using a special coding pattern and using support functions from the test server library. A succesful test is a test that didn't crash, possibly within a user defined time limit.

The result from the test is a set of HTML pages which present the total result, the suite result, log information and where in the test case source file the test failed. See the test server documentation for more details.

Downloads

The following TAR archives are to be unpacked from the top directory of your Erlang/OTP source distribution, i.e.
