What is the best Salesforce testing framework

I'm running a headless Selenium server for web page testing, and dataloader with cliq via comman-line scripts for API and data interogation and testing, and displaying the results in a service group on Nagios real-time for testing and notification.

While this isn't an ideal solution, it works....however, I'm wondering if there is a better way to perform continual testing and monitoring of web pages and data?

Hi Will,

Salesforce Developer console is the best way to test the apex classes and manage the code coverage and  test visualforce pages and Triggers. Please follow the below link to undersatnd more about developer console.

I'm talking about a continual integration testing framework with Cucumber-like story integration, status dashboards, and alert messaging upon check-in.   The developer console is just one piece of the framework which can be leveraged.  I'm looking for a proven, best-practice, continual integration framework from user stories through  post-deployment testing.

Hi Will,

In general developer prefers to use Dev console. Moreover, for creating large applications ECLIPSE is oftenly used i.e. called as Force.com IDE. Here are the links which can explain the integration and details about Force.com IDE:

I understand all the Salesforce tools for testing code, but they don't help.   I want to integrate Cucumber....is anyone doing this...can it be done easily?

Hi,
I know this is a very old post. Please have a look at the Apex Test Kit, and vote if you like it.
https://github.com/ApexTestKit/ApexTestKit

It focused on test data generation with cool syntax. Welcome to have a try.

Thanks.
