Abstract

NOLA Computer Services, Inc. has been conducting an XP project since late 2000. In this time it has experimented with many tools and techniques for acceptance testing. This paper will discuss the relative costs and benefits that we’ve found in using manually executed tests, a commercial testing tool, and hand-coded Java tests. It will conclude with a discussion of Avignon, an XML-based, extensible, scripting language developed in-house that allows the customer to specify acceptance tests in advance at a high level with relative ease.
