FitNesse Beta Released
December 28, 2004
Uncle Bob and crew just released a beta version of FitNesse: a stand-alone wiki bundled with Ward Cunningham's FIT framework. FitNesse is pure Java (JRE 1.4.0 or newer) and you don't need a web server to make it go. Installation is a piece 'o cake.
With FitNesse, it's never been easier to collaboratively create online documents with embedded acceptance tests expressed in HTML tables. Test fixtures, written in Java, are simple adapters that form the glue between a FIT test and the system behavior being tested. Running the tests on any given page is as simple as clicking a link and watching the rows of each FIT table turn green (or red). Very nice!
