Sipper API documentation


What is Sipper?

SIPr pronounced as Sipper is a SIP application testing framework that enables the developer and tester write new and complex test cases with extreme ease. While SIP applications are becoming more and more complex and feature rich the test tools have not been able to keep pace with them. Sipper was developed out of the necessity to test ever evolving SIP protocol and multi-faceted applications spanning SIP and Web. As new APIs for SIP application development made writing SIP applications accessible, we felt that writing tests for them, which are the cornerstone of agile development processes, should be even simpler. Sipper is our solution to that problem. Sipper is ideally suited for for feature, interop, regression, acceptance and field simulation. It has Servlet style API that ranges from extremely simple to very feature rich and powerful. While on one hand you can write simple test cases and controllers with very few lines of scripts, you can go further down the API depth and progressively control any aspect of SIP stack.

Getting started

The best place to get started on Sipper is to read the first few chapters of the Sipper book, freely available from the Sipper website, also refer to FAQs when in doubt, if you need help with a test case of Sipper syntax then join the community at Sipper mailing list. All of these are accesible from sipper.agnity.com
