The
Sybase QuaSR project manages thousands of automated tests for Sybase Inc's.
SQL [RDMS
], each implemented as an independent Tcl program. The resulting test suite, significantly more than a million lines of code, comprises the largest known Tcl code base. The test harness is written in
incr Tcl and the test cases in Tcl. Tcl and
incr Tcl's extensibility, simplicity, and reliability have made them uniquely suited to the development of a sophisticated automated testing system.
