What is STAF?
STAF stands for "Software Testing Automation Framework. As its name indicates, STAF is an automation framework. It is intended to make it easier to create and manage automated testcases and test environments.
STAF externalizes its capabilities through services. A service provides a focused set of functionality, such as, Logging, Process Invocation, etc. STAFProc is the process that runs on a machine, called a STAF Client, which accepts requests and routes them to the appropriate service. These requests may come from the local machine or from another STAF Client. Thus, STAF works in a peer environment, where machines may make requests of services on other machines.
STAF was designed with the following points in mind:
Minimum machine requirements - This is both a hardware and a software statement.
Easily useable from a variety of languages, such as Java, C/C++, Rexx, Perl, and Tcl, or from a shell (command) prompt.
Easily extendable - This means that it should be easy to create other services to plug into STAF.
