Open Source C++ QA Automation Software

Static analysis of C/C++ code. Checks for: memory leaks, mismatching allocation-deallocation, buffer overrun, and many more. The goal is 0% false positives. See http://cppcheck.sourceforge.net for more information.

A Notepad++ plugin that allows users to run JSLint (The JavaScript Code Quality Tool) against their open JavaScript files (more about JSLint at http://www.jslint.com/lint.html). Also supports JSHint (http://www.jshint.com/).

CppUnit is the C++ port of the famous JUnit framework for unit testing. Test output is in XML or text format for automatic testing and GUI based for supervised tests.

PerceptualDiff is an image comparison utility that compares two images using a perceptual metric. That is, it uses a computational model of the human visual system to determine if two images are visually different, so minor changes in pixels are ignored.

SLOCCount is an easy-to-use tool that counts Source Lines of Code (SLOC). It auto-determines the language(s) (inc. C, C++, Ada, Assembly, shell, COBOL, C#, Fortran, Haskell, Java, LISP/Scheme, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby, SQL). It also estimates cost & time.

qpt (Qt Project Tool) understands Qt C++ projects (.pro) and allows to pass this information to command line tools as "Code Counters" and "Static Analysis tools". It also can used inside QtCreator to act as a plugin for "Static Analysis tools" putting reported issues into QtCreator issues pane.

Robust, Lightweight, Cross-platform, Template Software. STLSoft is a collection of STL and standard library extensions, and facades over operating-system and 3rd-party APIs.

CCCC is a tool which analyzes C++ and Java files and generates a report on various metrics of the code. Metrics supported include lines of code, McCabe's complexity and metrics proposed by Chidamber&Kemerer and Henry&Kafura.

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.

Duplicated source code can harm maintainability of software systems. Duplo is a tool to find duplicated code blocks in large C, C++, Java, C# and VB.Net systems.

AutoIt-Recorder is a tool written in C++ on .NET for windows. It aids the AutoIT (seperate project) developer in creating test scripts. These test scripts can be fed into the AutoIT tools to help the automation and testing of windows applications.

DuploQ is a GUI frontend for Duplo duplicate finder console tool. Its goal is to find duplicates (i.e. copy-pasted parts of code) across several source files. Locating and eliminating source code duplicates is an important part of the overall refactoring process which leads to decreasing a project's technical dept and increasing stability of the software.

Open System Testing Architecture - a distributed software testing architecture designed around CORBA. The current toolset has the capability of performing scripted Web (HTTP and HTTPS) heavy load tests with performance measurements from Win32 platforms.

This framework supports a wide variety of model-based GUI testing techniques. The innovation lies in the architecture of GUITAR, which uses plug-ins to support flexibility and extensibility. Software developers and quality assurance engineers may use this architecture to create new toolchains, new workflows based on the toolchains, and plug in a variety of measurement tools to conduct GUI testing. More detail is presented in this publication: GUITAR: An Innovative Tool for Automated Testing of GUI-driven Software. Bao N. Nguyen, Bryan Robbins, Ishan Banerjee, and Atif Memon. Automated Software Engineering Journal. p.21, 1. 2014

MiniCppUnit another C++ port of the famous JUnit framework for unit testing. Unlike CppUnit, MiniCppUnit follows a minimalistic aproach: The basic features are the same but in only bout 500 lines of code! No library instalation is needed, etc.

PEP is a modelling and verification framework for parallel systems, providing a large number of different modelling languages and verification techniques (e.g. SDL, Petri nets and model checking)

A C++ library for reading and writing configuration files as easily as creating a variable. Depends only on the STL library and allows any serializable object to be read or written. Preserves comments and tries to be rational about placing new settin

Source code template library for encapsulation of highly-visible program data. Provides storage, access control, and duplication. Enforces modular access pattern, restricting normal functions from object access. Also protects simple objects and POD.

The templog library provides a logging facility to C++ applications that employs expression templates and heavy inlining to minimize run-time overhead.

Utility to dump undecorated C++ symbols from C/C++ libraries in a sorted fashion. Useful for testing new library versions for backwards ABI compatibility, among other things. Requires a valid install of VS.Net 2003 or VS 2005, and the .NET 2.0 framework.

API Caller is a software for extracting API functions from any executable and can be used to call them. With this tool, quality can easily be checked by calling functions and checking them if they are error-free.

libeasycgi is designed to be an easy to use and ASP-like library for CGI programming. It will provide an interface for CGI programming in an ASP style and tries to go beyond this. Also, it is designed to be easy for automated test on CGI programs.

A framework for abstract access to CM / SCM / SCCM / ALM systems (Bugzilla, ClearCase, Mantis, StarTeam, etc.). The project offers one SDK for Bugzilla, ClearCase, Mantis, StarTeam, etc.

Automatic correction of software bugs announced in compilers (clang, gcc) / Static Code Analysis tools (cppcheck, FindBugs) and grammar/style errors like in LanguageTool. Usage: use tool (e.g. cppcheck) and store results in a text file. Afterwards call: autoreplacerplus mytextfile

AvatarSAT is a SAT solver that uses machine-learning classifiers to automatically tune the heuristics of an off-the-shelf SAT solver on a per-instance basis.
