[ale] Testing terminal based UIs

[John Wells]

Guys,

I have a terminal based application that I need to test in an automated fashion.  I'm aware of expect, but it would literally take a LOOOOONG time for me to script all the various facets of this app to test that way.

Anyone aware of either a. something that makes recording expect scripts quite easy, or b. another tool/suite that allows you to test terminal based apps automagically?

Thanks guys!

John
