Criterion is a dead-simple, yet extensible, C and C++ unit testing framework.
|
|
|
|
Most test frameworks for C require a lot of boilerplate code to
|
|
set up tests and test suites -- you need to create a main,
|
|
then register new test suites, then register the tests within
|
|
these suits, and finally call the right functions.
|
|
|
|
This gives the user great control, at the unfortunate cost of simplicity.
|
|
|
|
Criterion follows the KISS principle, while keeping the control
|
|
the user would have with other frameworks:
|
|
|
|
* C99 and C++11 compatible.
|
|
* Tests are automatically registered when declared.
|
|
* Implements a xUnit framework structure.
|
|
* A default entry point is provided, no need to declare a main
|
|
unless you want to do special handling.
|
|
* Test are isolated in their own process, crashes and signals can be
|
|
reported and tested.
|
|
* Unified interface between C and C++: include the criterion header and it *just* works.
|
|
* Supports parameterized tests and theories.
|
|
* Progress and statistics can be followed in real time with report hooks.
|
|
* TAP output format can be enabled with an option.
