Tools for Functional testing (questions # 1)

18 Jun 2009 2:23PM ET Hi:
We're at that stage where manually testing our API is getting tedious, especially with new releases where the same tests have to be repeated.
I was having a look at quickfixj and they have a good 'acceptance test' suite mechanism that has 'i' (inputs) and 'e' (expected output) 'def'inition files. I was wondering if anyone has evolved quickfixj or created a simple tool where one can specify the 'input' and 'expected output' for application-level messages to build a suite of repeatable functional tests. Obviously, I could spend some time and build it but this seems so integral to the process that I'm certain many might have already walked this road to share their valuable experiences.
So essentially --> a program that connects to a fix engine, reads a set of 'input' and 'output' fix messages (out of a flat-file) and determine if the cases passed or failed. If there is something out there that is opensource - that's even better.
Thanks for your time!
