Hello World!
20 Jul 2018

We are very excited to introduce the new CUTE website with a brand new look and feel.

At the Institute for Software we have developed numerous plug-ins for Eclipse, for example the popular CUTE unit testing framework. This new and improved website provides all the information you as a developer might need.

Our goal is to make it easier and more pleasurable to write modern C++ code!

Get more information about the team behind CUTE and the features it contains. Or just install CUTE and see for yourself. You should also follow us on Twitter, and let us know what you think.
