Ahven - Unit Testing Library for Ada Programming Language

Ahven is a simple unit test library (or a framework) for Ada programming language. It is loosely modelled after JUnit and some ideas are taken from AUnit.

Ahven is free software distributed under permissive ISC license and should work with any Ada 95, 2005, or 2012 compiler.
