PyYAML Analysis

The PyYAML page says that it doesn't have a separate list, and references
this list. Sorry if this is not of interest to many on here.

I, along with a group of masters students at Penn State, recently completed
a class on software testing. For this class we had to pick an open source
project and subject it to various forms of software testing. We chose the
PyYAML library, and wanted to make the results available to the PyYAML
community.

All of our work is available from our github repository:
https://github.com/PSU-SW581-S16-T3/pyyaml-test
Including our final report:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PSU-SW581-S16-T3/pyyaml-test/master/FinalReport.pdf

We tested the Python 3 version, and a lot of the low-level test was focused
on the serialization section. As this was only a 7 week class, we did not
attempt to be comprehensive in our testing, rather we tried lots of
different methods, applied to parts of the total library.

In general we found that the PyYAML library was largely defect free. The
only issues we uncovered don't seem to cause end-user errors in any
circumstances. I hope that I will be able to use PyYAML for a future
project!

Sincerely,
Tom Kent
