Unit Testing Frameworks
-
Which unit testing framework (if any) do you use for C++ applications? CXXTest, cppunit, VS 2005, any other? Muhammad Shoaib Khan http://geocities.com/lansolution
My Unit Test Framework:
#include <assert.h>
(actually I'm using _ASSERTE / ATLASSERT, but it's the spirit that counts) :cool: sample usage:
void CheckTrans(CLangTranslator & trans, LPCTSTR in, LPCTSTR out)
{
CString s(in);
trans.Translate(s);
assert(s == out);
}void Test_Translator()
{
// ... setup// simple replacement
CheckTrans(trans, "{Head1}", "Ihre Werte bitte");// replacement with surrounding text
CheckTrans(trans, "|-- {Head1} --|", "|-- Ihre Werte bitte --|");// partial prefix
CheckTrans(trans, "{Head1{Head1}", "{Head1Ihre Werte bitte" );// multiple replacements, args expected, none provided
CheckTrans(trans,
"|-- {head1} --|| {value1} |",
"|-- Ihre Werte bitte --|| Explosion: {1}..{2} Hz |");// two arguments expected, two given:
CheckTrans(trans, "{value1:10;20}", "Explosion: 10..20 Hz" );// two arguments expected, one given:
CheckTrans(trans, "{value1:10}", "Explosion: 10..{2} Hz" );// two arguments expected, three given:
CheckTrans(trans, "{value1:10;20;30}", "Explosion: 10..20 Hz" );// ...teardown
}int main()
{
Test_Translator();
}Start it under the debugger. If the assert fires, you can go immediately to the point of failure, examine values etc. It's fun, it's simple, it makes sense.
Some of us walk the memory lane, others plummet into a rabbit hole

In general, Boost.Test library, although mostly I usually write just a bunch of asserts without any framework.
My programming blahblahblah blog. If you ever find anything useful here, please let me know to remove it.
ASSERT is Evil. Repeat ten times.

Assert is perfect for many things, but not for all. Again: why evil?
