Test Anything Protocol
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about the software unit testing protocol known as TAP. For the network tunnel driver, see TUN/TAP.
The Test Anything Protocol (TAP) is a protocol to allow communication between unit tests and a test harness. It allows individual tests (TAP producers) to communicate test results to the testing harness in a language-agnostic way. Originally developed for unit testing of the Perl interpreter in 1987, producers and parsers are now available for many development platforms.
