The fMBT (free Model-Based Testing) tool automatically generates and
executes tests. It is suitable for testing anything from individual
C++ classes to GUI applications and distributed systems containing a
range of different devices. fMBT provides a model editor, test
generator, adapters for various purposes and tools for analysing logs.


Building & installing
---------------------

Quick start for Debian/Ubuntu users:

    sudo apt-get install build-essential libglib2.0-dev libboost-regex-dev libedit-dev libmagick++-dev python-pexpect python-dbus python-gobject gawk libtool autoconf automake debhelper libboost-dev flex libxml2-dev graphviz imagemagick gnuplot python-pyside tesseract-ocr

Quick start for Fedora users:

    yum install  glibc-devel glib2-devel boost-devel libedit-devel gcc-c++ pexpect dbus-python libtool autoconf automake flex libxml2-devel graphviz ImageMagick ImageMagick-c++-devel gnuplot python-pyside tesseract

./autogen.sh # run only if you cloned sources from git
./configure
make
sudo make install

(There is a known issue with Fedora: "make install" may install Python
libraries to a directory that is not in the default PYTHONPATH. You
may need to add it to PYTHONPATH, for instance:
export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages)


Getting started
---------------

1. Create a model and a test configuration:

   fmbt-editor helloworld.aal helloworld.conf

2. Run the first test:

   fmbt -l first.log helloworld.conf

3. See what it executed:

   fmbt-log first.log
