Answer / mr.goodfun
A Test Harness is an application or group of applications
used to manage the test environment (data, inputs, tests,
outputs, etc.) It is responsible for setting up the
environment, executing the tests or preferably kicking off
a test driver to execute the tests, and managing the
outputs. It could also go so far as to be able to set up
the clients involved in the testing and creating a
distributed test system for executing large numbers of test
on 'n' number of clients. It should also allow results of
tests and regression runs to be viewed.

Answer / varsha b
Test harness is used when all components in environment is
not available for testing.In this case we can create stub
or driver to replace the missing components.
(Stub is a replacement for missing sub component whereas
driver is replacement for missing main component for
system.)
