How? From my understanding, given a known bug and a known set of circumstances that can reproduce the bug, we can continually execute tests that vary the circumstances until a minimal subset of <span class="plainlinks">[http://jamumassagesingapore.com/services/pre-natal<span style="color:black;font-weight:normal; text-decoration:none!important; background:none!important; text-decoration:none;"> prenatal massage in singapore</span>] circumstances that can reproduce the bug is left. That is, for each test, a circumstance is removed, and if the bug is still present, than that circumstance can theoretically be eliminated as the cause of the bug from the set of circumstances. In this project's case, the circumstance will be certain change(s) to the program code that caused a regression in the program.

Uploaded testcase for '''HelloWorld''' binary at '''deltatest svn'''. The test simulates the error that may occur when compilation fails due to syntax error. The exalted HelloWorld program is located on the HelloWorld directory, while the <span class="plainlinks">[http://www.miiny.com<span style="color:black;font-weight:normal; text-decoration:none!important; background:none!important; text-decoration:none;"> deals singapore</span>] test definition is at HelloTestCase1.pm. The algorithm detects failed test and reverts the affected file to the version where the test passes.
Note for the future: improve user feedback functions!

The development of testing system for the framework is in the works. The first scenario revolves around a test called '''BinaryExist''', which has been shamelessly ripped from the Tinderbox script. All this test does is <span class="plainlinks">[http://physioactive.sg/services/massage/sports-massage.html<span style="color:black;font-weight:normal; text-decoration:none!important; background:none!important; text-decoration:none;"> sports massage singapore</span> check whether a given file exists in the system. While this test can aspire for great things, right now it's doing simple thing, like checking whether its client Hello World program is doing what it's supposed to. Initial testing reveals that this test has potential. Will be uploaded to the SVN soon.
