# Googletest Primer
|
||||
|
||||
## Introduction: Why googletest?
|
||||
|
||||
*googletest* helps you write better C++ tests.
|
||||
|
||||
googletest is a testing framework developed by the Testing Technology team with
|
||||
Google's specific requirements and constraints in mind. Whether you work on
|
||||
Linux, Windows, or a Mac, if you write C++ code, googletest can help you. And it
|
||||
supports *any* kind of tests, not just unit tests.
|
||||
|
||||
So what makes a good test, and how does googletest fit in? We believe:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Tests should be *independent* and *repeatable*. It's a pain to debug a test
|
||||
that succeeds or fails as a result of other tests. googletest isolates the
|
||||
tests by running each of them on a different object. When a test fails,
|
||||
googletest allows you to run it in isolation for quick debugging.
|
||||
2. Tests should be well *organized* and reflect the structure of the tested
|
||||
code. googletest groups related tests into test suites that can share data
|
||||
and subroutines. This common pattern is easy to recognize and makes tests
|
||||
easy to maintain. Such consistency is especially helpful when people switch
|
||||
projects and start to work on a new code base.
|
||||
3. Tests should be *portable* and *reusable*. Google has a lot of code that is
|
||||
platform-neutral; its tests should also be platform-neutral. googletest
|
||||
works on different OSes, with different compilers, with or without
|
||||
exceptions, so googletest tests can work with a variety of configurations.
|
||||
4. When tests fail, they should provide as much *information* about the problem
|
||||
as possible. googletest doesn't stop at the first test failure. Instead, it
|
||||
only stops the current test and continues with the next. You can also set up
|
||||
tests that report non-fatal failures after which the current test continues.
|
||||
Thus, you can detect and fix multiple bugs in a single run-edit-compile
|
||||
cycle.
|
||||
5. The testing framework should liberate test writers from housekeeping chores
|
||||
and let them focus on the test *content*. googletest automatically keeps
|
||||
track of all tests defined, and doesn't require the user to enumerate them
|
||||
in order to run them.
|
||||
6. Tests should be *fast*. With googletest, you can reuse shared resources
|
||||
across tests and pay for the set-up/tear-down only once, without making
|
||||
tests depend on each other.
|
||||
|
||||
Since googletest is based on the popular xUnit architecture, you'll feel right
|
||||
at home if you've used JUnit or PyUnit before. If not, it will take you about 10
|
||||
minutes to learn the basics and get started. So let's go!
|
||||
|
||||
## Beware of the nomenclature
|
||||
|
||||
_Note:_ There might be some confusion arising from different definitions of the
|
||||
terms _Test_, _Test Case_ and _Test Suite_, so beware of misunderstanding these.
|
||||
|
||||
Historically, googletest started to use the term _Test Case_ for grouping
|
||||
related tests, whereas current publications, including International Software
|
||||
Testing Qualifications Board ([ISTQB](http://www.istqb.org/)) materials and
|
||||
various textbooks on software quality, use the term
|
||||
_[Test Suite][istqb test suite]_ for this.
|
||||
|
||||
The related term _Test_, as it is used in googletest, corresponds to the term
|
||||
_[Test Case][istqb test case]_ of ISTQB and others.
|
||||
|
||||
The term _Test_ is commonly of broad enough sense, including ISTQB's definition
|
||||
of _Test Case_, so it's not much of a problem here. But the term _Test Case_ as
|
||||
was used in Google Test is of contradictory sense and thus confusing.
|
||||
|
||||
googletest recently started replacing the term _Test Case_ with _Test Suite_.
|
||||
The preferred API is *TestSuite*. The older TestCase API is being slowly
|
||||
deprecated and refactored away.
|
||||
|
||||
So please be aware of the different definitions of the terms:

|
||||
|
||||
## Basic Concepts
|
||||
|
||||
When using googletest, you start by writing *assertions*, which are statements
|
||||
that check whether a condition is true. An assertion's result can be *success*,
|
||||
*nonfatal failure*, or *fatal failure*. If a fatal failure occurs, it aborts the
|
||||
current function; otherwise the program continues normally.
|
||||
|
||||
*Tests* use assertions to verify the tested code's behavior. If a test crashes
|
||||
or has a failed assertion, then it *fails*; otherwise it *succeeds*.
|
||||
|
||||
A *test suite* contains one or many tests. You should group your tests into test
|
||||
suites that reflect the structure of the tested code. When multiple tests in a
|
||||
test suite need to share common objects and subroutines, you can put them into a
|
||||
*test fixture* class.
|
||||
|
||||
A *test program* can contain multiple test suites.
|
||||
|
||||
We'll now explain how to write a test program, starting at the individual
|
||||
assertion level and building up to tests and test suites.
|
||||
|
||||
## Assertions
|
||||
|
||||
googletest assertions are macros that resemble function calls. You test a class
|
||||
or function by making assertions about its behavior. When an assertion fails,
|
||||
googletest prints the assertion's source file and line number location, along
|
||||
with a failure message. You may also supply a custom failure message which will
|
||||
be appended to googletest's message.
|
||||
|
||||
The assertions come in pairs that test the same thing but have different effects
|
||||
on the current function. `ASSERT_*` versions generate fatal failures when they
|
||||
fail, and **abort the current function**. `EXPECT_*` versions generate nonfatal
|
||||
failures, which don't abort the current function. Usually `EXPECT_*` are
|
||||
preferred, as they allow more than one failure to be reported in a test.
|
||||
However, you should use `ASSERT_*` if it doesn't make sense to continue when the
|
||||
assertion in question fails.
|
||||
|
||||
Since a failed `ASSERT_*` returns from the current function immediately,
|
||||
possibly skipping clean-up code that comes after it, it may cause a space leak.
|
||||
Depending on the nature of the leak, it may or may not be worth fixing - so keep
|
||||
this in mind if you get a heap checker error in addition to assertion errors.
|
||||
|
||||
To provide a custom failure message, simply stream it into the macro using the
|
||||
`<<` operator or a sequence of such operators. An example:
|
||||
|
||||
```c++
|
||||
ASSERT_EQ(x.size(), y.size()) << "Vectors x and y are of unequal length";
|
||||
|
||||
for (int i = 0; i < x.size(); ++i) {
|
||||
EXPECT_EQ(x[i], y[i]) << "Vectors x and y differ at index " << i;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Anything that can be streamed to an `ostream` can be streamed to an assertion
|
||||
macro--in particular, C strings and `string` objects. If a wide string
|
||||
(`wchar_t*`, `TCHAR*` in `UNICODE` mode on Windows, or `std::wstring`) is
|
||||
streamed to an assertion, it will be translated to UTF-8 when printed.
|
||||
|
||||
### Basic Assertions
|
||||
|
||||
These assertions do basic true/false condition testing.
|
||||
|
||||
Fatal assertion | Nonfatal assertion | Verifies
|
||||
-------------------------- | -------------------------- | --------------------
|
||||
`ASSERT_TRUE(condition);` | `EXPECT_TRUE(condition);` | `condition` is true
|
||||
`ASSERT_FALSE(condition);` | `EXPECT_FALSE(condition);` | `condition` is false
|
||||
|
||||
Remember, when they fail, `ASSERT_*` yields a fatal failure and returns from the
|
||||
current function, while `EXPECT_*` yields a nonfatal failure, allowing the
|
||||
function to continue running. In either case, an assertion failure means its
|
||||
containing test fails.
|
||||
|
||||
**Availability**: Linux, Windows, Mac.
|
||||
|
||||
### Binary Comparison
|
||||
|
||||
This section describes assertions that compare two values.
|
||||
|
||||
Fatal assertion | Nonfatal assertion | Verifies
|
||||
------------------------ | ------------------------ | --------------
|
||||
`ASSERT_EQ(val1, val2);` | `EXPECT_EQ(val1, val2);` | `val1 == val2`
|
||||
`ASSERT_NE(val1, val2);` | `EXPECT_NE(val1, val2);` | `val1 != val2`
|
||||
`ASSERT_LT(val1, val2);` | `EXPECT_LT(val1, val2);` | `val1 < val2`
|
||||
`ASSERT_LE(val1, val2);` | `EXPECT_LE(val1, val2);` | `val1 <= val2`
|
||||
`ASSERT_GT(val1, val2);` | `EXPECT_GT(val1, val2);` | `val1 > val2`
|
||||
`ASSERT_GE(val1, val2);` | `EXPECT_GE(val1, val2);` | `val1 >= val2`
|
||||
|
||||
Value arguments must be comparable by the assertion's comparison operator or
|
||||
you'll get a compiler error. We used to require the arguments to support the
|
||||
`<<` operator for streaming to an `ostream`, but this is no longer necessary. If
|
||||
`<<` is supported, it will be called to print the arguments when the assertion
|
||||
fails; otherwise googletest will attempt to print them in the best way it can.
|
||||
For more details and how to customize the printing of the arguments, see the
|
||||
[documentation](../../googlemock/docs/cook_book.md#teaching-gmock-how-to-print-your-values).
|
||||
|
||||
These assertions can work with a user-defined type, but only if you define the
|
||||
corresponding comparison operator (e.g., `==` or `<`). Since this is discouraged
|
||||
by the Google
|
||||
[C++ Style Guide](https://google.github.io/styleguide/cppguide.html#Operator_Overloading),
|
||||
you may need to use `ASSERT_TRUE()` or `EXPECT_TRUE()` to assert the equality of
|
||||
two objects of a user-defined type.
|
||||
|
||||
However, when possible, `ASSERT_EQ(actual, expected)` is preferred to
|
||||
`ASSERT_TRUE(actual == expected)`, since it tells you `actual` and `expected`'s
|
||||
values on failure.
|
||||
|
||||
Arguments are always evaluated exactly once. Therefore, it's OK for the
|
||||
arguments to have side effects. However, as with any ordinary C/C++ function,
|
||||
the arguments' evaluation order is undefined (i.e., the compiler is free to
|
||||
choose any order), and your code should not depend on any particular argument
|
||||
evaluation order.
|
||||
|
||||
`ASSERT_EQ()` does pointer equality on pointers. If used on two C strings, it
|
||||
tests if they are in the same memory location, not if they have the same value.
|
||||
Therefore, if you want to compare C strings (e.g. `const char*`) by value, use
|
||||
`ASSERT_STREQ()`, which will be described later on. In particular, to assert
|
||||
that a C string is `NULL`, use `ASSERT_STREQ(c_string, NULL)`. Consider using
|
||||
`ASSERT_EQ(c_string, nullptr)` if c++11 is supported. To compare two `string`
|
||||
objects, you should use `ASSERT_EQ`.
|
||||
|
||||
When doing pointer comparisons use `*_EQ(ptr, nullptr)` and `*_NE(ptr, nullptr)`
|
||||
instead of `*_EQ(ptr, NULL)` and `*_NE(ptr, NULL)`. This is because `nullptr` is
|
||||
typed, while `NULL` is not. See the [FAQ](faq.md) for more details.
|
||||
|
||||
If you're working with floating point numbers, you may want to use the floating
|
||||
point variations of some of these macros in order to avoid problems caused by
|
||||
rounding. See [Advanced googletest Topics](advanced.md) for details.
|
||||
|
||||
Macros in this section work with both narrow and wide string objects (`string`
|
||||
and `wstring`).
|
||||
|
||||
**Availability**: Linux, Windows, Mac.
|
||||
|
||||
**Historical note**: Before February 2016 `*_EQ` had a convention of calling it
|
||||
as `ASSERT_EQ(expected, actual)`, so lots of existing code uses this order. Now
|
||||
`*_EQ` treats both parameters in the same way.
|
||||
|
||||
### String Comparison
|
||||
|
||||
The assertions in this group compare two **C strings**. If you want to compare
|
||||
two `string` objects, use `EXPECT_EQ`, `EXPECT_NE`, and etc instead.
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- mdformat off(github rendering does not support multiline tables) -->
|
||||
|
||||
| Fatal assertion | Nonfatal assertion | Verifies |
|
||||
| -------------------------- | ------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| `ASSERT_STREQ(str1,str2);` | `EXPECT_STREQ(str1,str2);` | the two C strings have the same content |
|
||||
| `ASSERT_STRNE(str1,str2);` | `EXPECT_STRNE(str1,str2);` | the two C strings have different contents |
|
||||
| `ASSERT_STRCASEEQ(str1,str2);` | `EXPECT_STRCASEEQ(str1,str2);` | the two C strings have the same content, ignoring case |
|
||||
| `ASSERT_STRCASENE(str1,str2);` | `EXPECT_STRCASENE(str1,str2);` | the two C strings have different contents, ignoring case |
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- mdformat on-->
|
||||
|
||||
Note that "CASE" in an assertion name means that case is ignored. A `NULL`
|
||||
pointer and an empty string are considered *different*.
|
||||
|
||||
`*STREQ*` and `*STRNE*` also accept wide C strings (`wchar_t*`). If a comparison
|
||||
of two wide strings fails, their values will be printed as UTF-8 narrow strings.
|
||||
|
||||
**Availability**: Linux, Windows, Mac.
|
||||
|
||||
**See also**: For more string comparison tricks (substring, prefix, suffix, and
|
||||
regular expression matching, for example), see [this](advanced.md) in the
|
||||
Advanced googletest Guide.
|
||||
|
||||
## Simple Tests
|
||||
|
||||
To create a test:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Use the `TEST()` macro to define and name a test function. These are
|
||||
ordinary C++ functions that don't return a value.
|
||||
2. In this function, along with any valid C++ statements you want to include,
|
||||
use the various googletest assertions to check values.
|
||||
3. The test's result is determined by the assertions; if any assertion in the
|
||||
test fails (either fatally or non-fatally), or if the test crashes, the
|
||||
entire test fails. Otherwise, it succeeds.
|
||||
|
||||
```c++
|
||||
TEST(TestSuiteName, TestName) {
|
||||
... test body ...
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
`TEST()` arguments go from general to specific. The *first* argument is the name
|
||||
of the test suite, and the *second* argument is the test's name within the test
|
||||
case. Both names must be valid C++ identifiers, and they should not contain
|
||||
any underscores (`_`). A test's *full name* consists of its containing test suite and
|
||||
its individual name. Tests from different test suites can have the same
|
||||
individual name.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, let's take a simple integer function:
|
||||
|
||||
```c++
|
||||
int Factorial(int n); // Returns the factorial of n
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
A test suite for this function might look like:
|
||||
|
||||
```c++
|
||||
// Tests factorial of 0.
|
||||
TEST(FactorialTest, HandlesZeroInput) {
|
||||
EXPECT_EQ(Factorial(0), 1);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Tests factorial of positive numbers.
|
||||
TEST(FactorialTest, HandlesPositiveInput) {
|
||||
EXPECT_EQ(Factorial(1), 1);
|
||||
EXPECT_EQ(Factorial(2), 2);
|
||||
EXPECT_EQ(Factorial(3), 6);
|
||||
EXPECT_EQ(Factorial(8), 40320);
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
googletest groups the test results by test suites, so logically related tests
|
||||
should be in the same test suite; in other words, the first argument to their
|
||||
`TEST()` should be the same. In the above example, we have two tests,
|
||||
`HandlesZeroInput` and `HandlesPositiveInput`, that belong to the same test
|
||||
suite `FactorialTest`.
|
||||
|
||||
When naming your test suites and tests, you should follow the same convention as
|
||||
for
|
||||
[naming functions and classes](https://google.github.io/styleguide/cppguide.html#Function_Names).
|
||||
|
||||
**Availability**: Linux, Windows, Mac.
|
||||
|
||||
## Test Fixtures: Using the Same Data Configuration for Multiple Tests {#same-data-multiple-tests}
|
||||
|
||||
If you find yourself writing two or more tests that operate on similar data, you
|
||||
can use a *test fixture*. This allows you to reuse the same configuration of
|
||||
objects for several different tests.
|
||||
|
||||
To create a fixture:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Derive a class from `::testing::Test` . Start its body with `protected:`, as
|
||||
we'll want to access fixture members from sub-classes.
|
||||
2. Inside the class, declare any objects you plan to use.
|
||||
3. If necessary, write a default constructor or `SetUp()` function to prepare
|
||||
the objects for each test. A common mistake is to spell `SetUp()` as
|
||||
**`Setup()`** with a small `u` - Use `override` in C++11 to make sure you
|
||||
spelled it correctly.
|
||||
4. If necessary, write a destructor or `TearDown()` function to release any
|
||||
resources you allocated in `SetUp()` . To learn when you should use the
|
||||
constructor/destructor and when you should use `SetUp()/TearDown()`, read
|
||||
the [FAQ](faq.md#CtorVsSetUp).
|
||||
5. If needed, define subroutines for your tests to share.
|
||||
|
||||
When using a fixture, use `TEST_F()` instead of `TEST()` as it allows you to
|
||||
access objects and subroutines in the test fixture:
|
||||
|
||||
```c++
|
||||
TEST_F(TestFixtureName, TestName) {
|
||||
... test body ...
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Like `TEST()`, the first argument is the test suite name, but for `TEST_F()`
|
||||
this must be the name of the test fixture class. You've probably guessed: `_F`
|
||||
is for fixture.
|
||||
|
||||
Unfortunately, the C++ macro system does not allow us to create a single macro
|
||||
that can handle both types of tests. Using the wrong macro causes a compiler
|
||||
error.
|
||||
|
||||
Also, you must first define a test fixture class before using it in a
|
||||
`TEST_F()`, or you'll get the compiler error "`virtual outside class
|
||||
declaration`".
|
||||
|
||||
For each test defined with `TEST_F()`, googletest will create a *fresh* test
|
||||
fixture at runtime, immediately initialize it via `SetUp()`, run the test,
|
||||
clean up by calling `TearDown()`, and then delete the test fixture. Note that
|
||||
different tests in the same test suite have different test fixture objects, and
|
||||
googletest always deletes a test fixture before it creates the next one.
|
||||
googletest does **not** reuse the same test fixture for multiple tests. Any
|
||||
changes one test makes to the fixture do not affect other tests.
|
||||
|
||||
As an example, let's write tests for a FIFO queue class named `Queue`, which has
|
||||
the following interface:
|
||||
|
||||
```c++
|
||||
template <typename E> // E is the element type.
|
||||
class Queue {
|
||||
public:
|
||||
Queue();
|
||||
void Enqueue(const E& element);
|
||||
E* Dequeue(); // Returns NULL if the queue is empty.
|
||||
size_t size() const;
|
||||
...
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
First, define a fixture class. By convention, you should give it the name
|
||||
`FooTest` where `Foo` is the class being tested.
|
||||
|
||||
```c++
|
||||
class QueueTest : public ::testing::Test {
|
||||
protected:
|
||||
void SetUp() override {
|
||||
q1_.Enqueue(1);
|
||||
q2_.Enqueue(2);
|
||||
q2_.Enqueue(3);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// void TearDown() override {}
|
||||
|
||||
Queue<int> q0_;
|
||||
Queue<int> q1_;
|
||||
Queue<int> q2_;
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
In this case, `TearDown()` is not needed since we don't have to clean up after
|
||||
each test, other than what's already done by the destructor.
|
||||
|
||||
Now we'll write tests using `TEST_F()` and this fixture.
|
||||
|
||||
```c++
|
||||
TEST_F(QueueTest, IsEmptyInitially) {
|
||||
EXPECT_EQ(q0_.size(), 0);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
TEST_F(QueueTest, DequeueWorks) {
|
||||
int* n = q0_.Dequeue();
|
||||
EXPECT_EQ(n, nullptr);
|
||||
|
||||
n = q1_.Dequeue();
|
||||
ASSERT_NE(n, nullptr);
|
||||
EXPECT_EQ(*n, 1);
|
||||
EXPECT_EQ(q1_.size(), 0);
|
||||
delete n;
|
||||
|
||||
n = q2_.Dequeue();
|
||||
ASSERT_NE(n, nullptr);
|
||||
EXPECT_EQ(*n, 2);
|
||||
EXPECT_EQ(q2_.size(), 1);
|
||||
delete n;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The above uses both `ASSERT_*` and `EXPECT_*` assertions. The rule of thumb is
|
||||
to use `EXPECT_*` when you want the test to continue to reveal more errors after
|
||||
the assertion failure, and use `ASSERT_*` when continuing after failure doesn't
|
||||
make sense. For example, the second assertion in the `Dequeue` test is
|
||||
`ASSERT_NE(nullptr, n)`, as we need to dereference the pointer `n` later, which
|
||||
would lead to a segfault when `n` is `NULL`.
|
||||
|
||||
When these tests run, the following happens:
|
||||
|
||||
1. googletest constructs a `QueueTest` object (let's call it `t1`).
|
||||
2. `t1.SetUp()` initializes `t1`.
|
||||
3. The first test (`IsEmptyInitially`) runs on `t1`.
|
||||
4. `t1.TearDown()` cleans up after the test finishes.
|
||||
5. `t1` is destructed.
|
||||
6. The above steps are repeated on another `QueueTest` object, this time
|
||||
running the `DequeueWorks` test.
|
||||
|
||||
**Availability**: Linux, Windows, Mac.
|
||||
|
||||
## Invoking the Tests
|
||||
|
||||
`TEST()` and `TEST_F()` implicitly register their tests with googletest. So,
|
||||
unlike with many other C++ testing frameworks, you don't have to re-list all
|
||||
your defined tests in order to run them.
|
||||
|
||||
After defining your tests, you can run them with `RUN_ALL_TESTS()`, which
|
||||
returns `0` if all the tests are successful, or `1` otherwise. Note that
|
||||
`RUN_ALL_TESTS()` runs *all tests* in your link unit--they can be from
|
||||
different test suites, or even different source files.
|
||||
|
||||
When invoked, the `RUN_ALL_TESTS()` macro:
|
||||
|
||||
* Saves the state of all googletest flags.
|
||||
|
||||
* Creates a test fixture object for the first test.
|
||||
|
||||
* Initializes it via `SetUp()`.
|
||||
|
||||
* Runs the test on the fixture object.
|
||||
|
||||
* Cleans up the fixture via `TearDown()`.
|
||||
|
||||
* Deletes the fixture.
|
||||
|
||||
* Restores the state of all googletest flags.
|
||||
|
||||
* Repeats the above steps for the next test, until all tests have run.
|
||||
|
||||
If a fatal failure happens the subsequent steps will be skipped.
|
||||
|
||||
> IMPORTANT: You must **not** ignore the return value of `RUN_ALL_TESTS()`, or
|
||||
> you will get a compiler error. The rationale for this design is that the
|
||||
> automated testing service determines whether a test has passed based on its
|
||||
> exit code, not on its stdout/stderr output; thus your `main()` function must
|
||||
> return the value of `RUN_ALL_TESTS()`.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Also, you should call `RUN_ALL_TESTS()` only **once**. Calling it more than
|
||||
> once conflicts with some advanced googletest features (e.g., thread-safe
|
||||
> [death tests](advanced.md#death-tests)) and thus is not supported.

|
||||
|
||||
## Writing the main() Function
|
||||
|
||||
Write your own main() function, which should return the value of
|
||||
`RUN_ALL_TESTS()`.
|
||||
|
||||
You can start from this boilerplate:
|
||||
|
||||
```c++
|
||||
#include "this/package/foo.h"
|
||||
#include "gtest/gtest.h"
|
||||
|
||||
namespace {
|
||||
|
||||
// The fixture for testing class Foo.
|
||||
class FooTest : public ::testing::Test {
|
||||
protected:
|
||||
// You can remove any or all of the following functions if its body
|
||||
// is empty.
|
||||
|
||||
FooTest() {
|
||||
// You can do set-up work for each test here.
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
~FooTest() override {
|
||||
// You can do clean-up work that doesn't throw exceptions here.
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// If the constructor and destructor are not enough for setting up
|
||||
// and cleaning up each test, you can define the following methods:
|
||||
|
||||
void SetUp() override {
|
||||
// Code here will be called immediately after the constructor (right
|
||||
// before each test).
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
void TearDown() override {
|
||||
// Code here will be called immediately after each test (right
|
||||
// before the destructor).
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Objects declared here can be used by all tests in the test suite for Foo.
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
// Tests that the Foo::Bar() method does Abc.
|
||||
TEST_F(FooTest, MethodBarDoesAbc) {
|
||||
const std::string input_filepath = "this/package/testdata/myinputfile.dat";
|
||||
const std::string output_filepath = "this/package/testdata/myoutputfile.dat";
|
||||
Foo f;
|
||||
EXPECT_EQ(f.Bar(input_filepath, output_filepath), 0);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Tests that Foo does Xyz.
|
||||
TEST_F(FooTest, DoesXyz) {
|
||||
// Exercises the Xyz feature of Foo.
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
} // namespace
|
||||
|
||||
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
|
||||
::testing::InitGoogleTest(&argc, argv);
|
||||
return RUN_ALL_TESTS();
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The `::testing::InitGoogleTest()` function parses the command line for
|
||||
googletest flags, and removes all recognized flags. This allows the user to
|
||||
control a test program's behavior via various flags, which we'll cover in
|
||||
the [AdvancedGuide](advanced.md). You **must** call this function before calling
|
||||
`RUN_ALL_TESTS()`, or the flags won't be properly initialized.
|
||||
|
||||
On Windows, `InitGoogleTest()` also works with wide strings, so it can be used
|
||||
in programs compiled in `UNICODE` mode as well.
|
||||
|
||||
But maybe you think that writing all those main() functions is too much work? We
|
||||
agree with you completely, and that's why Google Test provides a basic
|
||||
implementation of main(). If it fits your needs, then just link your test with
|
||||
gtest\_main library and you are good to go.
|
||||
|
||||
NOTE: `ParseGUnitFlags()` is deprecated in favor of `InitGoogleTest()`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Known Limitations
|
||||
|
||||
* Google Test is designed to be thread-safe. The implementation is thread-safe
|
||||
on systems where the `pthreads` library is available. It is currently
|
||||
_unsafe_ to use Google Test assertions from two threads concurrently on
|
||||
other systems (e.g. Windows). In most tests this is not an issue as usually
|
||||
the assertions are done in the main thread. If you want to help, you can
|
||||
volunteer to implement the necessary synchronization primitives in
|
||||
`gtest-port.h` for your platform.
