The OW2 Community Announces the Launch of STAMP Project Beta-Testing Campaign


Using innovative STAMP open source tools, Java developers and DevOps teams can now produce quality releases faster and more frequently.

Paris, November 15, 2018 - OW2, the global community for open source infrastructure software, announces the launch of STAMP beta-testing campaign. Java developers and DevOps teams are invited to download and try DSpot and Descartes, both outcomes of the STAMP project supported by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme.

The STAMP beta-testing campaign is starting online at: l.ow2.org/stpbeta  

STAMP stands for "Software Testing AMPlification". The STAMP tools act along the Continuous Integration and Continuous Distribution pipeline (CI/CD), reducing errors and eliminating failures in Java applications while they are being designed, configured, and sent to production. 

STAMP users obtain a modern testing toolset to leverage their Java testing assets. They can produce software releases more frequently, more rapidly, with higher quality.

Using DSpot, STAMP early users can detect and generate automatically missing assertions for Junit test cases, also known as test amplification. Adding Descartes, a Pitest plugin, to their own java code, they get more actionable and faster mutation analysis results. 

Beta-testers are requested to fill in a short questionnaire by 25 March 2019 to provide their feedback and help fine-tune the toolset. They will also be distinguished as STAMP contributors and enter the community. Moreover, the first campaign participants will receive a customized “STAMP test pilot” gift.
A dedicated mailing list has been set up to allow Beta-testers to exchange and share their experiences. 

About STAMP Project 

Leveraging advanced research in automatic test generation, STAMP aims at pushing automation in DevOps one step further through innovative methods of test amplification. The project is developed by a consortium of ten partners and has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme. The STAMP toolset is evolving frequently.
