Working With FitNesse Wiki Pages
FitNesse provides an easy-to-use wiki to create web pages that are run as tests. Test pages have a button on them allowing all the tests on the page to be run, so any user can go to that page and click the button at any time, and see if the tests are passing. Also, FitNesse provides means to automatically run tests, so it can be easily added to your automated build scripts.So what does a test page look like? A page name has the form of a >Wiki Word. A >Wiki Word consists of two or more concatenated words, each word begins with a capital letter.
