Create and run functional test plans

Dr. Funk

This is a tool for writing and managing functional/acceptance tests. It can also be used to mark progress while manually testing an application.

A live demo is available at http://funk.heroku.com.

Purpose

Working with acceptance tests can be a fairly draining process, but the value they carry is significant.

Dr. Funk eases the burden by:

• Making test steps simple to manage and edit
• Keeping organization flexible
• Leaving formatting up to the editor
• Tracking manual testing progress

Not so obvious features

HTML output – Click the HTML link for any plan for customer sharable HTML output.

Step tracking – Once inside a scenario, press the up/down arrow keys to highlight the step you are currently testing. Press Esc to stop tracking.

Test failures – Marking failures is done by editing a step and using the following syntax:

The popup is displayed

failure. with the text "Funky!"

Failures have to start on a new line as shown above. Multiple failures for a single step is fine. Once marked, they will show up on the list of Test Failures for a plan.
