During the development of that product, the problem of having things work just fine under one shell (<filename>/bin/bash</filename> on Linux to be specific), and then not working under another shell (<filename>/bin/sh</filename> on Solaris), kept coming up. Although there were several simple tests ran, they were not adaquate and did not catch very many corner cases. The decision was finally made to write a proper unit test framework after after multiple brown-bag releases were made.</para> - - <para><blockquote><title>Tested Operating Systems</title> - <itemizedlist> - <listitem><para><ulink url="http://www.cygwin.com/">Cygwin</ulink></para></listitem> - <listitem><para><ulink url="http://www.freebsd.org/">FreeBSD</ulink> (user supported)</para></listitem> - <listitem><para>Linux (<ulink url="http://www.gentoo.org/">Gentoo</ulink>, <ulink url="http://www.ubuntu.com/">Ubuntu</ulink>)</para></listitem> - <listitem><para><ulink url="http://www.apple.com/macosx/">Mac OS X</ulink></para></listitem> - <listitem><para><ulink url="http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/">Solaris</ulink> 8, 9, 10</para></listitem> - </itemizedlist> - </blockquote></para> - - <para><blockquote><title>Tested Shells</title> - <itemizedlist> - <listitem><para>Bourne Shell (<command>sh</command>)</para></listitem> - <listitem><para><ulink url="http://www.gnu.org/software/bash/">BASH</ulink> - GNU Bourne Again SHell (<command>bash</command>)</para></listitem> - <listitem><para><ulink url="http://gondor.apana.org.au/~herbert/dash/">DASH</ulink> (<command>dash</command>)</para></listitem> - <listitem><para><ulink url="http://www.kornshell.com/">Korn Shell</ulink> (<command>ksh</command>)</para></listitem> - <listitem><para><ulink url="http://web.cs.mun.ca/~michael/pdksh/">pdksh</ulink> - Public Domain Korn Shell (<command>pdksh</command>)</para></listitem> - </itemizedlist> - </blockquote></para> - - <para>See the appropriate Release Notes (<filename>doc/RELEASE_NOTES-X.X.X.txt</filename>) for this release for the actual versions tested.</para> - - <!-- Give credit where credit is due...very important --> - <section id="credits"><title>Credits / Contributors</title> - <para>A list of contributors to shUnit2 can be found in the source archive as <filename>doc/contributors.txt</filename>.
