Subunit is a streaming protocol for test results. The protocol

is a binary encoding that is easily generated and parsed. By design all the components of the protocol conceptually fit into the xUnit TestCase -> TestResult interaction. Subunit comes with command line filters to process a subunit stream and language bindings for python, C, C++ and shell. Bindings are easy to write for other languages. A number of useful things can be done easily with subunit: - Test aggregation: Tests run separately can be combined and then reported/displayed together. For instance, tests from different languages can be shown as a seamless whole. - Test archiving: A test run may be recorded and replayed later. - Test isolation: Tests that may crash or otherwise interact badly with each other can be run separately and then aggregated, rather than interfering with each other. - Grid testing: subunit can act as the necessary serialization and deserialization to get test runs on distributed machines to be reported in real time.
