In 2005, Microsoft quietly announced an initiative to bring dynamic languages to the .NET platform this started with a .NET implementation of Python, called IronPython. Today, IronPython is ready for the real-world using the Python language to power the .NET framework. IronPython comprehensive integration with Visual Studio, and even the open-source Mono make it a good candidate for quick adoption.
Automation Excellence has embraced IronPython embedding it into a FitNesse Fixture as a ready-made assisted UI scripting tool. It can be used for acceptance test criteria, test first user stories and is easily learned by non technical Agile team staff. Our DocuMentor tool opens up exciting new possibilities for open sourced based test automation and AE is a cutting edge implementer.
