     Python's built-in unittest module is quite cool, but a bit limited and way too verbose (read: it's quite not easy to incite developers to write unit tests)

     I'm currently looking for more dev-friendly solutions, the key points being:

     • writing test code should be easy and straight-forward -keep the focus on "what to test" instead of "how to transcribe a process to a test"
     • parallelization! -we, spoiled developers, should make good use of our way-too-many-cores build machines...
     • complete feature set!
       • we don't want to just run tests...
       • coverage reports (find dead/weak/untested code sections)
       • output formatting (JUnit-XML seems to be quite a common format out there)

     There seem to be 3 solutions in Python:

     • stock unittest + project-dependent customizations / test helpers
     • nosetests
     • py.test

     And 2 ways of gettings things done:

     • keeping things stock: no external dependency, project-specific implementation...
     • using a test framework: one more module in your (test) virtualenv, more concise tests, more features (// run, code coverage, etc.)

     Uses a project or repository's history to plot user contributions, displaying an elegant, colored graph of the file arborescence.

     After running it on quite different projects...

     • Python/Bash CI/Jenkins scripts
     • Qt apps: GoldenDict, Psi+
     • PHP website: Shaarli

     ...watching some vids on teh intartubez:

     • Minecraft: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRjTyRly5WA
     • Linux kernel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhDiYPLo3p4
     • Python: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cNBtDstOTmA

     It allows to arbitrary spot some interesting implementation aspects (sorted by descending impact):

     • language-dependent trees (oh hai Java packages ^^)
     • framework-dependent trees
     • project-management method (none, Agile, TDD)

     Having a graphical tool also quickly shows:

     • the overall structure of the project (a bit cooler than a simple $ tree, way quicker than loading the project on an IDE)
     • the repartition of files (by extensions)
     • who are the most active contributors
     • what are the most modified files over time
     • who does what: additions, deletions, refactoring

     Some more CI-related matters:

     • are there any tests?
     • what is the source code / test code ratio? (we could expect a project/lib with N modules to have at least N test modules)
     • who initiates / implements / optimizes test code?
