Product     : Fedora 19

Release     : 0.fc19
URL         : http://psss.fedorapeople.org/python-nitrate/
Summary     : Python API for the Nitrate test case management system
Description :
python-nitrate is a Python interface to the Nitrate test case
management system. The package consists of a high-level Python
module (provides natural object interface), a low-level driver
(allows to directly access Nitrate's XMLRPC API) and a command
line interpreter (useful for fast debugging and experimenting).
