xtest is a C++ testing framework inspired by gtest. This is just a minimal implementation of a C++ unit testing framework which gives all the required facilities for unit testing a software without going template crazy and causing compilation issues.

A better and more robust version of this library is GoogleTest which is developed and maintained by Google. It is a official Google product and is used by many notable projects.

Installation

Clone the repository.

git clone https://github.com/joshiayush/xtest.git

Install libxtest

sudo chmod +x ./tools/install_libxtest.sh
./tools/install_libxtest.sh

Build samples

To build samples,

cmake -B build/ -S . -DBUILD_SAMPLES:BOOL=ON
cd build
make install

Now run the samples,

./samples/factorial/factorial  # Runs the factorial unit test samples binary
./samples/isprime/isprime      # Runs the isprime unit test samples binary

Usage

Testing a custom function that returns the sqaure of a given number.

#include <xtest/xtest.hh>

double square(int n) {
  return n*n;
}

TEST(TestSquare, TestWithPositiveNumber) {
  EXPECT_EQ(square(10), 100);
}

int32_t main(int32_t argc, char** argv) {
  ::xtest::InitXTest(&argc, argv);
  return RUN_ALL_TESTS();
}

Now compile the file and link the libxtest.so file with it:

g++ -lxtest square_test.cc -o square_test
