In depth
A closer look at STAF
STAF (Software Testing Automation Framework) is a free and open-source software framework meant to enhance test case scenarios and environments when it comes to reusage and automation.The tool's features are externalized via services that focus on a particular task, like file manipulation, resource pools, process invocation, events as well as logging. In addition to Windows, it can be installed on Mac OS X, Linux, Solaris, FreeBSD, AIX, z/OS, HP-YX, and IBM i.You can download, install and configure the STAF client to accept and redirect requests to the appropriate services, whether they're from another computer in the local network or from a remote PC using another STAF client.To make test cases automatic when it comes to distribution, execution and result analysis, you can turn to STAX, STAF's parallel execution engine, which supports custom-defined granularity of execution control, nested test cases, adjustable duration of execution time, and job monitoring.Aside from the core files, the setup package contains external services, language support, samples and demos, additional codepage support, documentation and development support. Any of these extra components can be excluded from installation. Next, you can set the default TCP, Pel, Python and TCL versions, along with the STAF instance name.
