Hi Gabor! A very late answer but it needed to wait. I had it bookmarked for a long time just for that answer. :-)

Besides being generic and adaptive by nature it particularly supports testing Operating Systems with Virtualization (Xen/KVM). It is written in Perl, built around TAP, utilizes several TAP::* toolchains from CPAN and is still language agnostic. E.g., it comes with a thin wrapper for the autotest client (which is written in Python) utilizing its TAP support. See the full announcement and more ressources here: http://developer.amd.com/zones/opensource/AMDTapper/Pages/default.aspx Kind regards, Steffen -- Steffen Schwigon <s...@renormalist.net>
