A standard testing framework for Delphi has been long
overdue. Now there is one and it’s even open source.

“In my article on Xtreme testing, I talked about how it could
improve the quality of programs as well as the speed and confidence
with which they were developed. For the examples, I used Kent Beck
and Erich Gamma’s JUnit open-source testing framework and I wrote
the program fragments using Java — a language I’m comfortable
with. But those who know me from previous writing gigs or my
once-frequent postings in online forums know that I’ve long been a
Borland Pascal programmer. My online buddies are probably wondering
why I didn’t write the examples in Object Pascal. The reason is
that I discovered Xtreme testing only recently, and, as far as I
know, there are no testing frameworks available for Delphi.”

“But we’re about to change that.”
