Is your project written in C but you want to integrate with Hudson? Or Java and you want to integrate with smolder? Perhaps you have some C++ in a mostly python project? Do you use libraries with global state that make things awkward and difficult? Does your test suite take too long to run?Subunit is a test streaming and activity protocol. Similar but more capable than TAP, and more dynamic than JUnit's XML output, subunit allows test running introspection, archiving and pipelining. Subunit allows tests being run in different processes, or at different times to interoperate seamlessly.The author of Subunit will present: the design of Subunit common uses such as:isolation in interpreted languagesparallel, and massively parallel testingedit-test-fix development loopshow to integrate Subunit into a test environmenthow to build on Subunit to integrate with your-favourite-adhoc test report format
