Hitch is a UNIX-based testing framework for writing integration tests with an emphasis on:

* Minimizing and eliminating `brittle tests `_

* `Test readability `_

* `Loose coupling `_

* `Test realism `_

* Tests that `fail fast `_ and `fail clearly `_

Available plugins

-----------------

Hitch comes with a variety of plugins to aid you to realistically testing various

kinds of software, components and scenarios, including:

* `Python `_ (includes Django and Celery service definitions)

* `Postgresql `_

* `Redis `_

* `Web apps (using selenium) `_

* Command line apps (using pexpect)

* `Cron `_

* MySQL

* RabbitMQ

* Elastic Search

`Plugin documentation `_

Getting started

---------------

See the `quickstart tutorial `_ on how to

get started testing an existing project.

Also check out `cookiecutter-django `_

if you want to start a new Django project with tests.

Status

------

Hitch is currently in beta.

It is regression tested on:

* Operating Systems : Mac OS X Yosemite, Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora and Arch Linux.

* Python versions : 3.5.0, 3.4.3, 3.4.0 and 3.3.0 `(what about python 2?) `_

It does not currently work on Windows.

See `tested on `_ for more details on

how the framework is tested (with itself, naturally).
