CUnit and CppUnit are the two biggies I remember from the old days.  
Just a re-implementation of Kent Beck's unit testing pattern in C and C 
++ respectively. JUnit was the one that first made unit testing fun  
and popular. Everyone else has pretty much cloned what was done there.

RSpec has been a breath of fresh air. Thanks, Ed :)
