Hi,
I'd recommend ert.el, it is actively maintained, and I have it on good
authority that this the tool of choice for elisp unit testing.
http://github.com/ohler/ert/tree/master
,----[from ert.el]
| ;;; Commentary:
|
| ;; ERT is a tool for automated testing in Emacs Lisp. Its main
| ;; features are facilities for defining and running test cases and
| ;; reporting the results as well as for debugging test failures
| ;; interactively.
| ;;
| ;; The main entry points are `ert-deftest', which is similar to
| ;; `defun' but defines a test, and `ert-run-tests-interactively',
| ;; which runs tests and offers an interactive interface for inspecting
| ;; results and debugging. There is also `ert-run-tests-batch' for
| ;; non-interactive use.
| ;;
| ;; The body of `ert-deftest' forms resembles a function body, but the
| ;; additional operators `should', `should-not' and `should-error' are
| ;; available. `should' is similar to cl's `assert', but signals a
| ;; different error when its condition is violated that is caught and
| ;; processed by ERT. In addition, it analyzes its argument form and
| ;; records information that helps debugging (`assert' tries to do
| ;; something similar when its second argument SHOW-ARGS is true, but
| ;; `should' is more sophisticated). For information on `should-not'
| ;; and `should-error', see their docstrings.
