Testing

This CMake module provides functions to interface gtest with ctest.

• Note for CTest users

qi_create_test(name [SRC <src> ...]
    [DEPENDS <depends> ...]
    [TIMEOUT <timeout>]
    [WORKING_DIRECTORY <working_directory>]
    [NIGHTLY]
    [PERF]
    [ARGUMENTS <arguments> ...]
    [ENVIRONMENT <environment> ...]
    [<remaining args> ...]
)

Arguments:

• name – the name of the test and the target
• SRC – sources of the test
• DEPENDS – the dependencies of the test
• TIMEOUT – the timeout of the test, in seconds. Defaults to 20
• WORKING_DIRECTORY – working directory used when running the test: default: <build>/sdk>/bin
• NIGHTLY – : only compiled (and thus run) if QI_WITH_NIGHTLY_TESTS is ON
• PERF – : only compiled (and thus run) if QI_WITH_PERF_TESTS is ON It is assumed that the executable will understand an option named “–output <out.xml>” and generate such a file. You can for instance use the qiperf library for that.
• ARGUMENTS – arguments to be passed to the executable
• ENVIRONMENT – list of environment variables for the tests, in the form “key1=value1;key2=value2”
• args (remaining) – source files (will be merged with the SRC group of arguments)

Create a new test that can be run by qibuild test

Notes:

• The test can be installed using qibuild install --with-tests
• The name of the test will always be the name of the target.
• The test won’t be configured or built if QI_WITH_TESTS is OFF

qi_create_test_helper()

Add a test helper Create a binary that will not be run as a test, but rather used by an other test.

The helper can be installed along the proper tests using qibuild install --with-tests

Arguments are the same as qi_create_bin

qi_create_test_lib()

Add a test library.

The library can be installed along the other tests binaries using qibuild install --with-tests

Arguments are the same as qi_create_lib

qi_add_test()

Add a test using an existing binary. Arguments are the same as

qi_create_test

The target_name should match either:

• a target
• a binary found by find_program(${target_name})
• the name of a package defining ${${target_name}_EXECUTABLE}}

This can be used for instance to create several tests with one target:

qi_create_test_helper(test_foo test_foo.cpp)
qi_add_test(test_foo_one test_foo ARGUMENTS --one)
qi_add_test(test_foo_two test_foo ARGUMENTS --two)

qi_create_gtest()

Same as qi_create_test, excepts it adds a dependency to the gtest libraries

qi_create_gmock()

Same as qi_create_test, excepts it adds a dependency to the gmock libraries

qi_create_perf_test()

Shortcut for qi_create_test(... PERF)
