There is a similar question: #940997 – Footpath

Answer 1

I also found PSUnit on Codeplex. PSUnit PowerShell Unit Testing Framework

There are some cool screen shots and a release is expected in August this year.

Answer 2

Well, just for completeness: There is actually PSUnit. Doesn't seem to be very mature, though as I see only two spikes of activity since its beginning as well as no documentation to speak of.

But as I learnt from cuTest, unit testing is something that fits into a very small space (at least for C in that case), so having something that works might not require too much effort.

It seems PsUnit started moving codeplex.com/PSUnit – Footpath

Answer 3

While not an actual framework a la xUnit, Lee Holmes did write an article about how to unit test PowerShell using PowerShell scripts.

Answer 4

From the project page for Pester:

Pester provides a framework for running unit tests to execute and validate PowerShell commands from within PowerShell.
