Versions:
Gauge is a free, open-source test-automation framework published by ThoughtWorks Inc. that focuses on reducing the complexity traditionally associated with acceptance testing. Positioned within the developer-tools category, the software enables teams to express test scenarios in business-readable language while still allowing underlying code to be written in the programming languages they already use. By separating test logic from implementation, Gauge supports parallel execution, data-driven workflows, and living documentation that evolves with the product. The current release, version 1.6.28, is the fourteenth iteration since the project’s inception, reflecting a history of incremental enhancements that have refined the plugin ecosystem, reporting formats, and IDE integrations for C#, Java, JavaScript, Python, and Ruby. Typical use cases include specifying user-journey acceptance criteria in Markdown, running those specifications across distributed environments, and feeding the resulting reports into continuous-integration pipelines so that product owners, testers, and developers share a single source of truth about release readiness. Gauge is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads provided via trusted Windows package sources (e.g. winget), always delivering the latest version, and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
