http://abbot.sourceforge.net/
Description:
The Abbot framework provides automated event generation and validation of Java GUI components, improving upon the very rudimentary functions provided by the java.awt.Robot class (A Better 'Bot). The framework may be invoked directly from Java code or accessed without programming through the use of scripts. It is suitable for use both by developers for unit tests and QA for functional testing.

http://arbiter.sourceforge.net/
Description:
Document based acceptance tester. Similar to FIT in goal. Manages requirements documents in Word or RTF format that are created jointly by customer and developer. Requirements are parsed to extract a glossary and test suite.
Downloadable files: 28 total downloads to date
Steve: Question.gif Sounds interesting if we had a requirements spec. Also the software is pre-alpha so could be a bit poor.
http://webtest.canoo.com/webtest/
Description:
Used for functional testing of web pages, WebTest is an open source testing framework built on top of HttpUnit. It allows tests to be defined in XML as Ant targets.
Steve: Question.gif A lot of effort and not much reusability or flexability for new functionality or functionality change.

Steve: Cross.gif Sounding good, but is only for Java apps.
http://www.incanica.com/itp.html
Description:
Lightweight, yet powerful web application test harness. Test scripts written in XML. No programming required and no changes required to your web application. Supports sessions/cookies, POST form data. Command line based for integration into other tools. Also useful for regression and smoke testing
Steve: Cross.gif Built for the purpose of testing the creators application - does not look that flexible outside of that.
http://www.ivalidator.org/
Description:
Regression testing framework written in java but by no means restricted to java testing. Test suites are declared in XML. Especially designed for complex testing scenarios and integration testing.
Steve: Tick.gif This could be used by developers for more feature rich unit tests, and features an eclipse plugin. Could be used for more than unit tests but it appears that it would have a large script size for a small test making a large test unwieldy. Still, merits further investigation.
http://jameleon.sourceforge.net/
Description:
Jameleon is a plug-in driven automated testing tool that separates applications into features and allows those features to be tied together independently, creating test cases. Test cases can be data-driven and executed against different environments and test case docs are generated from the test cases. The goal is to create an automated testing tool that can be used for the enterprise. A UI that ties a series of features to a test case, generating both the test script and the test case documentation is in the works.

http://maxq.tigris.org/
Description:
MaxQ is a free web functional testing tool. It includes an HTTP proxy that records your test script, and a command line utility that can be used to playback tests. The paradigm of MaxQ is similar to commercial web testing tools like Astra QuickTest or Empirix e-Test. These products are quite expensive. MaxQ hopes to provide the essential features: HTTP test recording, scripting, and playback without the huge cost.
Steve: Cross.gif I had high hopes for this software. However, recording a very simple 10 click script this tool recorded 588 lines of code, and then crashed! This is unacceptable since there would be no way to maintain such large scrips.
