The need for regression testing increases as the size and complexity of software projects grow. This is no different from a Modelica library or tool. Large Modelica projects often involves several Modelica tools and libraries which are under development. In those situations, with several orthogonal code bases, the need for systematic regression testing is needed. In this paper we investigate a new way to create and run tests by developing a tool-agnostic testing framework. Additionally a graphical user interface for test authoring and management was created.
