The Q Test Bench provides supporting functions for writing unit tests in q, the programming language of kdb+ from Kx Systems.

The detailed documentation on how to use it can be found in doc/qtb.md.

QTB and all supporting components in this repository are licensed under the GNU Public License v3, which can be found on the GNU website.

If you want to simply use qtb for building unit tests in q there is no need to pull the whole repository, you can simply download qtb.q and put it into a convenient place on your machine.

• consq - Source code and unit tests for a Perl script that reads a q script and expands all \l expressions, i.e. it inserts script referenced via \l with the contents of the script file in its output and removes the \l line. It thereby gets rid of external dependencies and creates only one script that can be run from any path.

• doc - Detailed documentation.

• msglib - A sample project that uses qtb for its unit tests.

• qtestbench - The source of qtb.q plus associated unit tests.

• tb - Some simple helper functions used by the unit tests for qtb.
