Black Box Testing

• Digger.jl :: Digger is a fuzz tester designed to fish bugs out of Dagger.jl
• Fuzz.jl :: A naive fuzzer that can generate bugs.

---

Debugging

• DebuggingUtilities.jl :: Simple utilities for debugging julia code.
• RR.jl :: Julia interface to mozilla's rr.
• Suppressor.jl :: Julia macros for suppressing output (STDOUT), warnings (STDERR) or both streams at the same time.

Timers

• TimerOutputs.jl :: Formatted output of timed sections in julia.

---

Documentation Driven Development

• DocStringExtensions.jl :: Extensions for Julia's docsystem.
• Documenter.jl :: A documentation generator for Julia.
• Tuxedo.jl :: Dressing up your algorithms with documentation-driven development.

Resources

• Making nice documentation for a Julia Package.

---

LOGGING

• Log4jl.jl :: A comprehensive and flexible logging framework for Julia programs.
• Logging.jl :: The Logging module.
• LogMover.jl
• Lumberjack.jl :: A logging library by Westley Hennigh.
• Stage.jl :: has stage macros, checkpoints and loggers for Julia.

---

Regression Testing

• VisualRegressionTests.jl Automated integrated regression tests for graphics libraries.

---

STATIC ANALYSIS

Static Program Analysis

• Lint.jl :: A lint tool to hunt for imperfections and dodgy structures that could be improved for Julia code.
• Quantity.jl :: Numbers with units.
• StackTraces.jl :: Intuitive, useful stack traces for Julia.

---

UNITTEST

• BaseTestDeprecated.jl :: Provides the Base.Test functionality removed in Julia v0.5.
• CoverageBase.jl :: Measuring internal test coverage of the Julia programming language.
• Coverage.jl :: Take the Julia test coverage results and bundle them up in JSON - it processes a .jl file and its matching .cov file, tracking your Julia packages for test coverage and works with Coveralls, which integrates with TravisCI.
• Debug.jl :: Prototype interactive debugger for Julia.
• FactCheck.jl :: Midje-like testing framework written for Julia.
• Fixtures.jl :: provides fixtures, mocks, matchers and patching to improve your tests with Julia.
• Jig.jl :: Testing framework for Julia.
• JLTest :: A unittest framework for Julia (inspired by Python's unittest).
• JulieTest.jl :: A Julia testing framework inspired by javascript's Mocha. See the Wiki
• microcoverage :: This module computes code coverage for a Julia program at a more fine-grained level than the built-in coverage feature. Specifically, it provides coverage counts for each branch of the ||, && and ?: operators where they occur. It also counts the number of invocations to statement-functions.
• Mocking.jl : Allows temporary overwriting of Julia methods for testing purposes.
• PackageTesting.jl :: A standard for testing Julia packages.
• RunTests.jl :: A test running framework for Julia that extends Base.Test
• Saute.jl :: is another testing framework for Julia.
• testfast.jl :: Automatically finds test files and runs them.
• UnitTest.jl :: Another unit-testing library for Julia, that provides nose test style output to the command line and is capable of producing an junit compatible xml result file.
