# Ant Libraries - The Sandbox

The sandbox is the place where new Ant Libraries start their life, it is a playground for Ant committers and other contributors who find committers to sponsor their ideas.

The sandbox is no dumping ground. If a Sandbox Ant Library fails to attract interest within a reasonable amount of time, it gets removed from the sandbox.

### Current Sandbox Ant Libraries

#### AntUnit - Unit Test Framework for Ant Tasks

AntUnit borrows ideas from JUnit 3.x and the <junit> task. It provides a task that runs build files as unit tests as well as a number of assertion tasks to support the idea.

#### DotNet - Improved Support for .NET projects

Also contains <nant>, <nunit> and untested <msbuild> and <wix> tasks.
