Touca is an open-source automation tool that helps software development teams test and monitor their software applications. It provides continuous feedback on the performance and reliability of the software by tracking changes made to the application and analyzing its behavior during various test scenarios.
In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Touca on FreeBSD using a simple step-by-step approach.
Before we begin, make sure that you have the following prerequisites:
The first step is to install the dependencies required by Touca. Touca requires Python 3, pip, and some Python libraries as dependencies. The best way to install them is to use the pkg package manager.
Run the following command to update the package repositories:
sudo pkg update
Then, install Python 3, pip, and the Python development headers using the following command:
sudo pkg install python3 py38-pip py38-setuptools py38-wheel py38-dev
Now that the dependencies are installed, we can proceed with installing Touca. Touca can be installed using pip, which is the default package manager for Python.
Run the following command to install Touca:
sudo pip3 install touca
To verify that Touca is installed correctly, run the following command:
touca --version
This should display the version number of Touca installed on your system.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Touca on your FreeBSD system.
In this tutorial, we went through the process of installing Touca on FreeBSD. Touca is an essential tool that can help software development teams to test and monitor the performance of their software applications. By following this tutorial, you should now be able to install Touca on FreeBSD and start using it to automate your testing processes.
