-\intropartitle{Motivation}
-GRASS GIS \cite{Neteler2012}, a free and open source GIS, is used by many scientists directly or through other projects such as R or QGIS to perform geoprocessing tasks.
-Thus, a large number of scientific geospatial computations depend on quality and correct functionality of GRASS GIS.
-Automatic functionality testing is therefore necessary to ensure software reliability.
-
-\intropartitle{Unique features}
-We present a testing framework for GRASS GIS which addresses different needs of GRASS GIS and geospatial software in general.
-It tests GRASS tools (referred to as GRASS modules) and
-examines outputs including large raster and vector maps as well as temporal datasets.
-Furthermore, it enables to test all levels of GRASS GIS architecture including C and Python application programming interface and GRASS modules invoked as subprocesses.
-
-\intropartitle{Audience}
-Since GRASS GIS is used as a platform for development of geospatial algorithms and models,
-the testing framework allows not only to test GRASS GIS core functionality but also tools developed by scientists as a part of their research.
