# Welcome to the Kyua project!

Kyua is a **testing framework** for infrastructure software, originally

designed to equip BSD-based operating systems with a test suite.  This

means that Kyua is lightweight and simple, and that Kyua integrates well

with various build systems and continuous integration frameworks.

Kyua features an **expressive test suite definition language**, a **safe

runtime engine** for test suites and a **powerful report generation

engine**.

Kyua is for **both developers *and* users**, from the developer applying a

simple fix to a library to the system administrator deploying a new release

on a production machine.

Kyua is **able to execute test programs written with a plethora of testing

libraries and languages**.  The library of choice is

[ATF](https://github.com/freebsd/atf/), for which Kyua was originally

designed, but simple, framework-less test programs and TAP-compliant test

programs can also be executed through Kyua.

Kyua is licensed under a **[liberal BSD 3-clause license](LICENSE)**.

This is not an official Google product.
