Litmus is a web-based, open source, test case management/QA tool maintained by the Mozilla Corporation/Mozilla Foundation. Currently, it is mainly used by Mozilla itself in testing its own products, here. Litmus can be downloaded from the Mozilla CVS server using this command :
cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs-mirror.mozilla.org:/cvsroot co mozilla/webtools/litmus
[edit] Requirements
Litmus depends on Apache (web server) and MySQL (database software). It also requires the following Perl Modules:
Required Perl Modules:
- Class::DBI
- Class::DBI::mysql
- Template
- Time::Piece
- Time::Piece::mysql
- Time::Seconds
- Date::Manip
- HTML::StripScripts
- HTML::StripScripts::Parser
- Text::Markdown
- XML::XPath
The use of the Apache module, "mod_perl" is highly recommended as it highly improves the performance of the software, but not required.
