bench-cli: cross-platform command line tool to benchmark commands and other executables/scripts in command lines written in Fortran, by Lateralus138. Very precise and fast.

Fortran Debug Utilities: collection of some utilities useful for debugging code, by Pål Levold

Fortran-gdb-pp: gdb pretty printer for Fortran dynamic types, by Peter Hill

fortran-git: Fortran 2008 ISO C binding interfaces to libgit2, by interkosmos

Fortran-RefCount: simple reference counting for Fortran

fortran-sigwatch: library of routines to provide simple signal watching for Fortran programs, originally by Norman Gray, modified by Michael Hirsch. This allows a minimal level of control of a running program from outside it, for example to tell it to checkpoint itself on receipt of a signal.

Fortran-Standard-Search: shell script searching a string in the titles of the subsection of the Fortran standard, and opening the pages in a PDF viewer, by Vincent Magnin. It is based on pdfgrep, cut and okular.

irep: tool for filling C/C++ or Fortran data structures from Lua input tables, from LLNL

libconfort: a small library to handle simple configuration files from Modern Fortran (2008+), by Dominik Gronkiewicz

nmltab: Python 3 module and command-line tool to tabulate, semantically diff, superset and consistently format Fortran namelist files, with output to text, markdown, csv, latex and namelists, by Andrew Kiss and Aidan Heerdegen. Requires Python 3.4 or later, and f90nml (amongst other packages).

nml-to-f90: generates Fortran source code for handling parameter I/O from a namelist, by perrette

progRESS+repORT (progrep}: utility to show live progress, status and stats of a running simulation or any compute job that executes a given number of iterations, by SomajitDey. Progrep can report for both serial (single-core) and parallel (multi-core/multi-node - e.g. OpenMP/MPI) jobs.

Unit Testing

f90tw: provides Fortran wrappers for a limited subset of the Boost and Google test frameworks functionality, by loudove. At the same time, it offers a rather simple mechanism for setting up and managing test suites in Fortran projects.

ForDebug: library designed for debugging Fortran code, especially within pure procedures, by Seyed Ali Ghasemi

FortCompare: tool to mitigate the amount of behavior changed between two implementations of the same Fortran function or subroutine, by aijac0

fort_test: very lightweight testing framework that supports basic assertions and running of test sets, by Thomas Marks

fortran-testanything: test library supporting the Test Anything Protocol (TAP) inspired by Perl's Test::More module, by dennisdjensen

fortran_test_helper: library to provide assistance to testing, by Jason Christopherson

FortranTestGenerator: automatically generates unit tests for subroutines of existing Fortran applications based on an approach called Capture & Replay, from fortesg

fortran-unit-test: unit test library in Fortran to encourage scientific programmer to write tests, by dongli

fortran_unit_test: minimalistic Fortran unit tests with CMake and CTest, by Felix Chern

Fortran-Unit-Test: shows how to link Fortran code with C/C++ and a testing framework such as Google Test, by Rich Morrison

Fortran_UnitTest: unit test library based on OOP, by zhenkunl. It is strongly inspired by Zofu, and its output format is derived from fortran-unit-test.

Fortran Unit Test Framework (FortUTF): unit test framework written purely in Fortran to be compatible with as many projects as possible, by Kristian Zarębski

Fortran Unit Test Library: pure Fortran library using Object-Oriented Programming (OOP), by zhenkunl. It is strongly inspired by Zofu, and its output format is derived from fortran-unit-test.

Fortran Unit Testing Objects (Fortuno): flexible and extensible Fortran unit testing framework for testing serial, MPI-parallelized and coarray-parallelized applications, by Bálint Aradi

ForUnitTest: simple, object-oriented unit testing framework, by Seyed Ali Ghasemi.

FRUIT: Fortran unit test framework in Ruby, by mortele and michaelkonecny

ftest: minimalistic unit testing, by Ladislav Méri

FUnit: lightweight library for writing, administering, and running unit tests in Fortran, by Andrey Pudov. It is an instance of the xUnit architecture and provides Fortran programmers a basic testing functionality with a flexible variety of user interfaces.

fytest: lightweight unit testing framework for Fortran, by aradi. Thanks to its header-only design, it can be easily bundled with any Fortran project without creating extra dependencies.

julienne: compiler-portable, unit-testing framework for modern Fortran, including accelerated coarray Fortran software, by Katherine Rasmussen and Damian Rouson

M_framework: aggregate of Fortran modules useful for creating terminal messages, comparing expected values to results, writing logfiles and playback journals and performing unit tests for Fortran, by urbanjost

par-funnel: unit test parameterizer using namelist, by Tomohiro Degawa. Par-funnel is not a unit test framework but is intended to be used with other unit test frameworks.

pFUnit: unit testing framework enabling JUnit-like testing of serial and MPI-parallel software written in Fortran, from Goddard-Fortran-Ecosystem. Limited support for OpenMP is also provided in the form of managing exceptions in a thread-safe manner.

tap: minimal producer implementation of the "Test Anything Protocol" (TAP) in Fortran 90, from gzahl

test-drive: lightweight, procedural unit testing framework based on nothing but standard Fortran, by awvwgk. Integration with meson, cmake and Fortran package manager (fpm) is available. testdrive_util by Tomohiro Degawa provides procedures to make using test-drive more convenient.

Testing Or ASsertion Toolkit (TOAST): unit testing library by thomasms and Bob Apthorpe

Vegetables: testing framework written using functional programming principles, by Brad Richardson. As many of its procedures as possible are marked with the pure keyword while still allowing the framework to test impure code.

XFunit: object oriented framework to implement unit testing in Fortran 2018, by Fran Martinez Fadrique. Unit testing with XFunit is structured in suites and units. A test suite typically define all test to be implemented for a Fortran module.
