-Google C++ Testing Framework
-============================
-
-http://code.google.com/p/googletest/
-
-Overview
---------
-
-Google's framework for writing C++ tests on a variety of platforms
-(Linux, Mac OS X, Windows, Windows CE, Symbian, etc). Based on the
-xUnit architecture. Supports automatic test discovery, a rich set of
-assertions, user-defined assertions, death tests, fatal and non-fatal
-failures, various options for running the tests, and XML test report
-generation.
-
-Please see the project page above for more information as well as the
-mailing list for questions, discussions, and development. There is
-also an IRC channel on OFTC (irc.oftc.net) #gtest available. Please
-join us!
-
-Requirements for End Users
---------------------------
-
-Google Test is designed to have fairly minimal requirements to build
-and use with your projects, but there are some. Currently, we support
-Linux, Windows, Mac OS X, and Cygwin. We will also make our best
-effort to support other platforms (e.g. Solaris, AIX, and z/OS).
-However, since core members of the Google Test project have no access
-to these platforms, Google Test may have outstanding issues there. If
-you notice any problems on your platform, please notify
-googletestframework@googlegroups.com. Patches for fixing them are
-even more welcome!
-
-### Linux Requirements ###
-
-These are the base requirements to build and use Google Test from a source
-package (as described below):
- * GNU-compatible Make or gmake
- * POSIX-standard shell
- * POSIX(-2) Regular Expressions (regex.h)
- * A C++98-standard-compliant compiler
-
-### Windows Requirements ###
-
- * Microsoft Visual C++ 7.1 or newer
-
-### Cygwin Requirements ###
-
- * Cygwin 1.5.25-14 or newer
-
-### Mac OS X Requirements ###
-
- * Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger or newer
- * Developer Tools Installed
-
-Also, you'll need CMake 2.6.4 or higher if you want to build the
-samples using the provided CMake script, regardless of the platform.
-
-Requirements for Contributors
------------------------------
-
-We welcome patches. If you plan to contribute a patch, you need to
-build Google Test and its own tests from an SVN checkout (described
-below), which has further requirements:
-
- * Python version 2.3 or newer (for running some of the tests and
- re-generating certain source files from templates)
- * CMake 2.6.4 or newer
-
-Getting the Source
-------------------
-
-There are two primary ways of getting Google Test's source code: you
-can download a stable source release in your preferred archive format,
-or directly check out the source from our Subversion (SVN) repositary.
-The SVN checkout requires a few extra steps and some extra software
-packages on your system, but lets you track the latest development and
-make patches much more easily, so we highly encourage it.
-
-### Source Package ###
-
-Google Test is released in versioned source packages which can be
-downloaded from the download page [1]. Several different archive
-formats are provided, but the only difference is the tools used to
-manipulate them, and the size of the resulting file. Download
-whichever you are most comfortable with.
-
- [1] http://code.google.com/p/googletest/downloads/list
-
-Once the package is downloaded, expand it using whichever tools you
-prefer for that type. This will result in a new directory with the
-name "gtest-X.Y.Z" which contains all of the source code. Here are
-some examples on Linux:
-
- tar -xvzf gtest-X.Y.Z.tar.gz
- tar -xvjf gtest-X.Y.Z.tar.bz2
- unzip gtest-X.Y.Z.zip
-
-### SVN Checkout ###
-
-To check out the main branch (also known as the "trunk") of Google
-Test, run the following Subversion command:
-
- svn checkout http://googletest.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ gtest-svn
-
-Setting up the Build
---------------------
-
-To build Google Test and your tests that use it, you need to tell your
-build system where to find its headers and source files. The exact
-way to do it depends on which build system you use, and is usually
-straightforward.
-
-### Generic Build Instructions ###
-
-Suppose you put Google Test in directory ${GTEST_DIR}. To build it,
-create a library build target (or a project as called by Visual Studio
-and Xcode) to compile
-
- ${GTEST_DIR}/src/gtest-all.cc
-
-with
-
- ${GTEST_DIR}/include and ${GTEST_DIR}
-
-in the header search path. Assuming a Linux-like system and gcc,
-something like the following will do:
-
- g++ -I${GTEST_DIR}/include -I${GTEST_DIR} -c ${GTEST_DIR}/src/gtest-all.cc
- ar -rv libgtest.a gtest-all.o
-
-Next, you should compile your test source file with
-${GTEST_DIR}/include in the header search path, and link it with gtest
-and any other necessary libraries:
-
- g++ -I${GTEST_DIR}/include path/to/your_test.cc libgtest.a -o your_test
-
-As an example, the make/ directory contains a Makefile that you can
-use to build Google Test on systems where GNU make is available
-(e.g. Linux, Mac OS X, and Cygwin). It doesn't try to build Google
-Test's own tests. Instead, it just builds the Google Test library and
-a sample test. You can use it as a starting point for your own build
-script.
-
-If the default settings are correct for your environment, the
-following commands should succeed:
-
- cd ${GTEST_DIR}/make
- make
- ./sample1_unittest
-
-If you see errors, try to tweak the contents of make/Makefile to make
-them go away. There are instructions in make/Makefile on how to do
-it.
-
-### Using CMake ###
-
-Google Test comes with a CMake build script (CMakeLists.txt) that can
-be used on a wide range of platforms ("C" stands for cross-platofrm.).
-If you don't have CMake installed already, you can download it for
-free from http://www.cmake.org/.
-
-CMake works by generating native makefiles or build projects that can
-be used in the compiler environment of your choice. The typical
-workflow starts with:
-
- mkdir mybuild # Create a directory to hold the build output.
- cd mybuild
- cmake ${GTEST_DIR} # Generate native build scripts.
-
-If you want to build Google Test's samples, you should replace the
-last command with
-
- cmake -Dgtest_build_samples=ON ${GTEST_DIR}
-
-If you are on a *nix system, you should now see a Makefile in the
-current directory. Just type 'make' to build gtest.
-
-If you use Windows and have Vistual Studio installed, a gtest.sln file
-and several .vcproj files will be created. You can then build them
-using Visual Studio.
-
-On Mac OS X with Xcode installed, a .xcodeproj file will be generated.
-
-### Legacy Build Scripts ###
-
-Before settling on CMake, we have been providing hand-maintained build
-projects/scripts for Visual Studio, Xcode, and Autotools. While we
-continue to provide them for convenience, they are not actively
-maintained any more. We highly recommend that you follow the
-instructions in the previous two sections to integrate Google Test
-with your existing build system.
-
-If you still need to use the legacy build scripts, here's how:
-
-The msvc\ folder contains two solutions with Visual C++ projects.
-Open the gtest.sln or gtest-md.sln file using Visual Studio, and you
-are ready to build Google Test the same way you build any Visual
-Studio project. Files that have names ending with -md use DLL
-versions of Microsoft runtime libraries (the /MD or the /MDd compiler
-option). Files without that suffix use static versions of the runtime
-libraries (the /MT or the /MTd option). Please note that one must use
-the same option to compile both gtest and the test code. If you use
-Visual Studio 2005 or above, we recommend the -md version as /MD is
-the default for new projects in these versions of Visual Studio.
-
-On Mac OS X, open the gtest.xcodeproj in the xcode/ folder using
-Xcode. Build the "gtest" target. The universal binary framework will
-end up in your selected build directory (selected in the Xcode
-"Preferences..." -> "Building" pane and defaults to xcode/build).
-Alternatively, at the command line, enter:
-
- xcodebuild
-
-This will build the "Release" configuration of gtest.framework in your
-default build location. See the "xcodebuild" man page for more
-information about building different configurations and building in
-different locations.
-
-Tweaking Google Test
---------------------
-
-Google Test can be used in diverse environments. The default
-configuration may not work (or may not work well) out of the box in
-some environments. However, you can easily tweak Google Test by
-defining control macros on the compiler command line. Generally,
-these macros are named like GTEST_XYZ and you define them to either 1
-or 0 to enable or disable a certain feature.
-
-We list the most frequently used macros below. For a complete list,
-see file include/gtest/internal/gtest-port.h.
-
-### Choosing a TR1 Tuple Library ###
-
-Some Google Test features require the C++ Technical Report 1 (TR1)
-tuple library, which is not yet available with all compilers. The
-good news is that Google Test implements a subset of TR1 tuple that's
-enough for its own need, and will automatically use this when the
-compiler doesn't provide TR1 tuple.
-
-Usually you don't need to care about which tuple library Google Test
-uses. However, if your project already uses TR1 tuple, you need to
-tell Google Test to use the same TR1 tuple library the rest of your
-project uses, or the two tuple implementations will clash. To do
-that, add
-
- -DGTEST_USE_OWN_TR1_TUPLE=0
-
-to the compiler flags while compiling Google Test and your tests. If
-you want to force Google Test to use its own tuple library, just add
-
- -DGTEST_USE_OWN_TR1_TUPLE=1
-
-to the compiler flags instead.
-
-If you don't want Google Test to use tuple at all, add
-
- -DGTEST_HAS_TR1_TUPLE=0
-
-and all features using tuple will be disabled.
-
-### Multi-threaded Tests ###
-
-Google Test is thread-safe where the pthread library is available.
-After #include "gtest/gtest.h", you can check the GTEST_IS_THREADSAFE
-macro to see whether this is the case (yes if the macro is #defined to
-1, no if it's undefined.).
-
-If Google Test doesn't correctly detect whether pthread is available
-in your environment, you can force it with
-
- -DGTEST_HAS_PTHREAD=1
-
-or
-
- -DGTEST_HAS_PTHREAD=0
-
-When Google Test uses pthread, you may need to add flags to your
-compiler and/or linker to select the pthread library, or you'll get
-link errors. If you use the CMake script or the deprecated Autotools
-script, this is taken care of for you. If you use your own build
-script, you'll need to read your compiler and linker's manual to
-figure out what flags to add.
-
-### As a Shared Library (DLL) ###
-
-Google Test is compact, so most users can build and link it as a
-static library for the simplicity. You can choose to use Google Test
-as a shared library (known as a DLL on Windows) if you prefer.
-
-To compile *gtest* as a shared library, add
-
- -DGTEST_CREATE_SHARED_LIBRARY=1
-
-to the compiler flags. You'll also need to tell the linker to produce
-a shared library instead - consult your linker's manual for how to do
-it.
-
-To compile your *tests* that use the gtest shared library, add
-
- -DGTEST_LINKED_AS_SHARED_LIBRARY=1
-
-to the compiler flags.
-
-Note: while the above steps aren't technically necessary today when
-using some compilers (e.g. GCC), they may become necessary in the
-future, if we decide to improve the speed of loading the library (see
-http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Visibility for details). Therefore you are
-recommended to always add the above flags when using Google Test as a
-shared library. Otherwise a future release of Google Test may break
-your build script.
-
-### Avoiding Macro Name Clashes ###
-
-In C++, macros don't obey namespaces. Therefore two libraries that
-both define a macro of the same name will clash if you #include both
-definitions. In case a Google Test macro clashes with another
-library, you can force Google Test to rename its macro to avoid the
-conflict.
-
-Specifically, if both Google Test and some other code define macro
-FOO, you can add
-
- -DGTEST_DONT_DEFINE_FOO=1
-
-to the compiler flags to tell Google Test to change the macro's name
-from FOO to GTEST_FOO. Currently FOO can be FAIL, SUCCEED, or TEST.
-For example, with -DGTEST_DONT_DEFINE_TEST=1, you'll need to write
-
- GTEST_TEST(SomeTest, DoesThis) { ... }
-
-instead of
-
- TEST(SomeTest, DoesThis) { ... }
-
-in order to define a test.
-
-Upgrating from an Earlier Version
----------------------------------
-
-We strive to keep Google Test releases backward compatible.
-Sometimes, though, we have to make some breaking changes for the
-users' long-term benefits. This section describes what you'll need to
-do if you are upgrading from an earlier version of Google Test.
-
-### Upgrading from 1.3.0 or Earlier ###
-
-You may need to explicitly enable or disable Google Test's own TR1
-tuple library. See the instructions in section "Choosing a TR1 Tuple
-Library".
-
-### Upgrading from 1.4.0 or Earlier ###
-
-The Autotools build script (configure + make) is no longer officially
-supportted. You are encouraged to migrate to your own build system or
-use CMake. If you still need to use Autotools, you can find
-instructions in the README file from Google Test 1.4.0.
-
-On platforms where the pthread library is available, Google Test uses
-it in order to be thread-safe. See the "Multi-threaded Tests" section
-for what this means to your build script.
-
-If you use Microsoft Visual C++ 7.1 with exceptions disabled, Google
-Test will no longer compile. This should affect very few people, as a
-large portion of STL (including <string>) doesn't compile in this mode
-anyway. We decided to stop supporting it in order to greatly simplify
-Google Test's implementation.
-
-Developing Google Test
-----------------------
-
-This section discusses how to make your own changes to Google Test.
-
-### Testing Google Test Itself ###
-
-To make sure your changes work as intended and don't break existing
-functionality, you'll want to compile and run Google Test's own tests.
-For that you can use CMake:
-
- mkdir mybuild
- cd mybuild
- cmake -Dgtest_build_tests=ON ${GTEST_DIR}
-
-Make sure you have Python installed, as some of Google Test's tests
-are written in Python. If the cmake command complains about not being
-able to find Python ("Could NOT find PythonInterp (missing:
-PYTHON_EXECUTABLE)"), try telling it explicitly where your Python
-executable can be found:
-
- cmake -DPYTHON_EXECUTABLE=path/to/python -Dgtest_build_tests=ON ${GTEST_DIR}
-
-Next, you can build Google Test and all of its own tests. On *nix,
-this is usually done by 'make'. To run the tests, do
-
- make test
-
-All tests should pass.
-
-### Regenerating Source Files ###
-
-Some of Google Test's source files are generated from templates (not
-in the C++ sense) using a script. A template file is named FOO.pump,
-where FOO is the name of the file it will generate. For example, the
-file include/gtest/internal/gtest-type-util.h.pump is used to generate
-gtest-type-util.h in the same directory.
-
-Normally you don't need to worry about regenerating the source files,
-unless you need to modify them. In that case, you should modify the
-corresponding .pump files instead and run the pump.py Python script to
-regenerate them. You can find pump.py in the scripts/ directory.
-Read the Pump manual [2] for how to use it.
-

-
-### Contributing a Patch ###
-
-We welcome patches. Please read the Google Test developer's guide [3]
-for how you can contribute. In particular, make sure you have signed
-the Contributor License Agreement, or we won't be able to accept the
-patch.
