I have a very large code base that contains extensive unit tests (using CppUnit). I need to work out what percentage of the code is exercised by these tests, and (ideally) generate some sort of report that tells me on a per-library or per-file basis, how much of the code was exercised. Here's the kicker: this has to run completely unnat...
I have been using CPPUnit as a unit testing framework and am now trying to use it in an automated build and package system. However a problem holding me back is that if a crash occurs during the running of the unit tests, e.g. a null pointer dereferencing, it halts the remainder of the automation. Is there any way for CPPUnit to recove...
I know there are already a few questions regarding recomendations for c++ unit test frameworks, but all the answers did not help as they just recomend one of the frameworks but do not provide any information about a (feature) comparison. I think the most interesting frameworks are CppUnit, Boost and the new Google testing framework. Has...
We are using cppunit, i am trying to run the same test using different parameters, running a loop inside the test is not a good option as any failure will abort the test. I have looked at TestDecorator and TestCaller but neither seem to really fit. Code samples would be helpful. Thanks. ...
I haven't worked much with Visual Studio before. I've started a personal project in my spare time and I would like to use test-driven development since it has been a huge benefit to me in my Java development. I started this project quite a while ago, and I used CppUnit. I know there are probably other frameworks that are better, but this...
Is there any good way to unit test destructors? Like say I have a class like this (contrived) example: class X { private: int *x; public: X() { x = new int; } ~X() { delete x; } int *getX() {return x;} const int *getX() const {return x;} }; Is there any good way to unit test th...
When compiling my test suite againts cppunit, I get the following linking error: error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "public: virtual __thiscall CppUnit::TextTestRunner::~TextTestRunner(void)" (??1TextTestRunner@CppUnit@@UAE@XZ) referenced in function _wmain I don't understand this problem as the provided examples link fine. I...
I've used both CppUnit and boost::test for C++ unittesting. Generally I prefer boost::test, mainly because the auto-test macros minimise the effort to setup tests. But there's one thing I really miss from CppUnit: the ability to register your own "protectors", instances of which automatically wrap all the run tests. (Technically, you ...
I'm currently writing up some CPPunit tests for a program that tests a hardware communication port (yes, I'm writing unit tests for a tester app ;-) ). One of the classes I'm testing is basically a wrapper around the device's file descriptor; I make read() and write() calls on the file descriptor. Is there a device file/driver on Linux...
I am quite new to both C++ and Cppunit. I am trying to compile a little cppunit test. However, I do not succeed. qwerty@qwerty:~/chessgame/src$ g++ -Wall CoordinateTest.cpp ftest.cpp -lcppunit -o test /tmp/cc1vJJqz.o: In function CoordinateTest::coordinateTest()': CoordinateTest.cpp:(.text+0xbb): undefined reference to Coordinate::Coord...
Is anyone aware of extensions to CppUnit that can be used to make assertions on a test by test basis concerning memory leaks. i.e. CPPUNIT_ASSERT_NO_LEAKS()? Essentially, I want to be able to fail specific tests when the execution of the test results in leaked memory. ...
Hi All, I am using Visual Studio 2008 with CPPUNIT. I already compiled CPPUNIT and add CPPUNIT path to Include and Library path. Currently, I can compile my program with CPPUNIT library. However, the linker generates the following warning. Warning 2 warning LNK4099: PDB 'vc90.pdb' was not found with 'C:\Program Files\cppunit\cppunit-1...
I'm setting up a bunch of unit tests using CppUnit but am having the problem that none of the tests are being run. The project is divided up into several small libraries and I planned on dividing the unit test classes up the same way and then linking them all into a single test program. The problem is, then the test classes are in thei...
I have written few c++ Unit tests using CPPUnit But I do not understand how to run those. Is there any tool like Nunit-gui? Currently I have written and packed tests in a DLL. When i google i found this http://cppunit.sourceforge.net/doc/lastest/cppunit_cookbook.html But i am not able to understand how does it get tests from a DLL...
I am using CPPUnit to test a class in my program. This class (SCriterionVal) is somewhat unique because it has conversion operators for a lot of types (it's essentially a dynamic type value class). When I compile test cases that test it using CPPUNIT_ASSERT_EQUAL(), I get compilation errors about "operator<< is ambiguous" from one of t...
Hi all, running my regression tests with valgrind I have this kind of report: ==20341== 256 bytes in 1 blocks are indirectly lost in loss record 915 of 919 ==20341== at 0x4A0661C: operator new(unsigned long) (vg_replace_malloc.c:...
I (finally) have my app being unit tested with CPPUnit and I have CruiseControl.NET running the tests and displaying the test output. I have several tests that always fail, however, so CruiseControl always marks the build as failed. Is there any way I can "turn off" or "skip" or "ignore" these always-failing tests? I'd rather not just...
Is there a good book or online site discussing the use of the CppUnit, for a beginner? ...
I have a problem with CruiseControl where it sends the correct number of passed unit tests in the mail notifications, but when I go to the project page it shows "No Tests Run". I checked the XML log file and it has all the unit tests reported. I tried looking through CC's XSL and JSP files but didn't get any indication from there. What s...
