# Googletest Primer
## Introduction: Why googletest?
# Introduction: Why Google C++ Testing Framework? #
*googletest* helps you write better C++ tests.
_Google C++ Testing Framework_ helps you write better C++ tests.
googletest is a testing framework developed by the [Testing
Technology](http://engdoc/eng/testing/TT/) team with Google's specific
requirements and constraints in mind. No matter whether you work on Linux,
Windows, or a Mac, if you write C++ code, googletest can help you. And it
supports *any* kind of tests, not just unit tests.

So what makes a good test, and how does Google C++ Testing Framework fit in? We believe:
1. Tests should be _independent_ and _repeatable_. It's a pain to debug a test that succeeds or fails as a result of other tests. Google C++ Testing Framework isolates the tests by running each of them on a different object. When a test fails, Google C++ Testing Framework allows you to run it in isolation for quick debugging.
1. Tests should be well _organized_ and reflect the structure of the tested code. Google C++ Testing Framework groups related tests into test cases that can share data and subroutines. This common pattern is easy to recognize and makes tests easy to maintain. Such consistency is especially helpful when people switch projects and start to work on a new code base.
1. Tests should be _portable_ and _reusable_. The open-source community has a lot of code that is platform-neutral, its tests should also be platform-neutral. Google C++ Testing Framework works on different OSes, with different compilers (gcc, MSVC, and others), with or without exceptions, so Google C++ Testing Framework tests can easily work with a variety of configurations. (Note that the current release only contains build scripts for Linux - we are actively working on scripts for other platforms.)
1. When tests fail, they should provide as much _information_ about the problem as possible. Google C++ Testing Framework doesn't stop at the first test failure. Instead, it only stops the current test and continues with the next. You can also set up tests that report non-fatal failures after which the current test continues. Thus, you can detect and fix multiple bugs in a single run-edit-compile cycle.
1. The testing framework should liberate test writers from housekeeping chores and let them focus on the test _content_. Google C++ Testing Framework automatically keeps track of all tests defined, and doesn't require the user to enumerate them in order to run them.
1. Tests should be _fast_. With Google C++ Testing Framework, you can reuse shared resources across tests and pay for the set-up/tear-down only once, without making tests depend on each other.

The term _Test_ is commonly of broad enough sense, including ISTQB's
definition of _Test Case_, so it's not much of a problem here. But the
term _Test Case_ as used in Google Test is of contradictory sense and thus confusing.
Unfortunately replacing the term _Test Case_ by _Test Suite_ throughout
the Google C++ Testing Framework is not easy without breaking dependent
projects, as `TestCase` is part of the public API at various places.

# Setting up a New Test Project #
## Basic Concepts
To write a test program using Google Test, you need to compile Google
Test into a library and link your test with it. We provide build
files for some popular build systems: `msvc/` for Visual Studio,
`xcode/` for Mac Xcode, `make/` for GNU make, `codegear/` for Borland
C++ Builder, and the autotools script (deprecated) and
`CMakeLists.txt` for CMake (recommended) in the Google Test root
directory. If your build system is not on this list, you can take a
look at `make/Makefile` to learn how Google Test should be compiled
(basically you want to compile `src/gtest-all.cc` with `GTEST_ROOT`
and `GTEST_ROOT/include` in the header search path, where `GTEST_ROOT`
is the Google Test root directory).
When using googletest, you start by writing *assertions*, which are statements
that check whether a condition is true. An assertion's result can be *success*,
*nonfatal failure*, or *fatal failure*. If a fatal failure occurs, it aborts the
current function; otherwise the program continues normally.
Once you are able to compile the Google Test library, you should
create a project or build target for your test program. Make sure you
have `GTEST_ROOT/include` in the header search path so that the
compiler can find `"gtest/gtest.h"` when compiling your test. Set up
your test project to link with the Google Test library (for example,
in Visual Studio, this is done by adding a dependency on
`gtest.vcproj`).
*Tests* use assertions to verify the tested code's behavior. If a test crashes
or has a failed assertion, then it *fails*; otherwise it *succeeds*.
If you still have questions, take a look at how Google Test's own
tests are built and use them as examples.

# Assertions #
## Assertions
Google Test assertions are macros that resemble function calls. You test a
class or function by making assertions about its behavior. When an assertion
fails, Google Test prints the assertion's source file and line number location,
along with a failure message. You may also supply a custom failure message
which will be appended to Google Test's message.

googletest prints the assertion's source file and line number location, along

be appended to googletest's message.
The assertions come in pairs that test the same thing but have different
effects on the current function. `ASSERT_*` versions generate fatal failures
when they fail, and **abort the current function**. `EXPECT_*` versions generate
nonfatal failures, which don't abort the current function. Usually `EXPECT_*`
are preferred, as they allow more than one failures to be reported in a test.
However, you should use `ASSERT_*` if it doesn't make sense to continue when
the assertion in question fails.

However, you should use `ASSERT_*` if it doesn't make sense to continue when the

Since a failed `ASSERT_*` returns from the current function immediately,
possibly skipping clean-up code that comes after it, it may cause a space leak.
Depending on the nature of the leak, it may or may not be worth fixing - so
keep this in mind if you get a heap checker error in addition to assertion
errors.

To provide a custom failure message, simply stream it into the macro using the
`<<` operator, or a sequence of such operators. An example:

### Basic Assertions
These assertions do basic true/false condition testing.

`ASSERT_FALSE(condition);` | `EXPECT_FALSE(condition);` | `condition` is false
Remember, when they fail, `ASSERT_*` yields a fatal failure and
returns from the current function, while `EXPECT_*` yields a nonfatal
failure, allowing the function to continue running. In either case, an
assertion failure means its containing test fails.

|`ASSERT_GE(`_val1_`, `_val2_`);`|`EXPECT_GE(`_val1_`, `_val2_`);`| _val1_ `>=` _val2_ |
Fatal assertion | Nonfatal assertion | Verifies
------------------------ | ------------------------ | --------------
`ASSERT_EQ(val1, val2);` | `EXPECT_EQ(val1, val2);` | `val1 == val2`
`ASSERT_NE(val1, val2);` | `EXPECT_NE(val1, val2);` | `val1 != val2`
`ASSERT_LT(val1, val2);` | `EXPECT_LT(val1, val2);` | `val1 < val2`

`ASSERT_GE(val1, val2);` | `EXPECT_GE(val1, val2);` | `val1 >= val2`
In the event of a failure, Google Test prints both _val1_ and _val2_.
Value arguments must be comparable by the assertion's comparison
operator or you'll get a compiler error. We used to require the
arguments to support the `<<` operator for streaming to an `ostream`,
but it's no longer necessary since v1.6.0 (if `<<` is supported, it
will be called to print the arguments when the assertion fails;
otherwise Google Test will attempt to print them in the best way it
can. For more details and how to customize the printing of the
arguments, see this Google Mock [recipe](../../googlemock/docs/CookBook.md#teaching-google-mock-how-to-print-your-values).).

These assertions can work with a user-defined type, but only if you define the

operator is defined, prefer using the `ASSERT_*()` macros because they will

discouraged by the Google [C++ Style
Guide](https://google.github.io/styleguide/cppguide.html#Operator_Overloading),
you may need to use `ASSERT_TRUE()` or `EXPECT_TRUE()` to assert the equality of
two objects of a user-defined type.
However, when possible, `ASSERT_EQ(actual, expected)` is preferred to
`ASSERT_TRUE(actual == expected)`, since it tells you `actual` and `expected`'s

`ASSERT_EQ()` does pointer equality on pointers. If used on two C strings, it
tests if they are in the same memory location, not if they have the same value.
Therefore, if you want to compare C strings (e.g. `const char*`) by value, use
`ASSERT_STREQ()` , which will be described later on. In particular, to assert
that a C string is `NULL`, use `ASSERT_STREQ(NULL, c_string)` . However, to

objects, you should use `ASSERT_EQ`.
When doing pointer comparisons use `*_EQ(ptr, nullptr)` and `*_NE(ptr, nullptr)`
instead of `*_EQ(ptr, NULL)` and `*_NE(ptr, NULL)`. This is because `nullptr` is
typed while `NULL` is not. See [FAQ](faq#Why_does_googletest_support_EXPECT_EQ)

If you're working with floating point numbers, you may want to use the floating
point variations of some of these macros in order to avoid problems caused by
rounding. See [Advanced googletest Topics](advanced) for details.

# Simple Tests #
## Simple Tests
To create a test:
1. Use the `TEST()` macro to define and name a test function, These are ordinary C++ functions that don't return a value.
1. In this function, along with any valid C++ statements you want to include, use the various Google Test assertions to check values.
1. The test's result is determined by the assertions; if any assertion in the test fails (either fatally or non-fatally), or if the test crashes, the entire test fails. Otherwise, it succeeds.
```
TEST(testCaseName, testName) {
... test body ...

```c++
TEST(TestCaseName, TestName) {
... test body ...
}
```
`TEST()` arguments go from general to specific. The _first_ argument is the
name of the test case, and the _second_ argument is the test's name within the
test case. Both names must be valid C++ identifiers, and they should not contain underscore (`_`). A test's _full name_ consists of its containing test case and its
individual name. Tests from different test cases can have the same individual
name.

For example, let's take a simple integer function:
```
int Factorial(int n); // Returns the factorial of n
```c++
int Factorial(int n); // Returns the factorial of n
```
A test case for this function might look like:
```
```c++
// Tests factorial of 0.
TEST(FactorialTest, HandlesZeroInput) {
EXPECT_EQ(1, Factorial(0));
EXPECT_EQ(Factorial(0), 1);
}
// Tests factorial of positive numbers.
TEST(FactorialTest, HandlesPositiveInput) {
EXPECT_EQ(1, Factorial(1));
EXPECT_EQ(2, Factorial(2));
EXPECT_EQ(6, Factorial(3));
EXPECT_EQ(40320, Factorial(8));
EXPECT_EQ(Factorial(1), 1);
EXPECT_EQ(Factorial(2), 2);
EXPECT_EQ(Factorial(3), 6);
EXPECT_EQ(Factorial(8), 40320);
}
```
Google Test groups the test results by test cases, so logically-related tests
googletest groups the test results by test cases, so logically-related tests
should be in the same test case; in other words, the first argument to their
`TEST()` should be the same. In the above example, we have two tests,
`HandlesZeroInput` and `HandlesPositiveInput`, that belong to the same test
case `FactorialTest`.
`HandlesZeroInput` and `HandlesPositiveInput`, that belong to the same test case

## Test Fixtures: Using the Same Data Configuration for Multiple Tests
If you find yourself writing two or more tests that operate on similar data, you
can use a *test fixture*. It allows you to reuse the same configuration of
objects for several different tests.
To create a fixture, just:
1. Derive a class from `::testing::Test` . Start its body with `protected:` or `public:` as we'll want to access fixture members from sub-classes.
1. Inside the class, declare any objects you plan to use.
1. If necessary, write a default constructor or `SetUp()` function to prepare the objects for each test. A common mistake is to spell `SetUp()` as `Setup()` with a small `u` - don't let that happen to you.
1. If necessary, write a destructor or `TearDown()` function to release any resources you allocated in `SetUp()` . To learn when you should use the constructor/destructor and when you should use `SetUp()/TearDown()`, read this [FAQ entry](faq.md#should-i-use-the-constructordestructor-of-the-test-fixture-or-the-set-uptear-down-function).
1. If needed, define subroutines for your tests to share.

access objects and subroutines in the test fixture:
```
TEST_F(test_case_name, test_name) {
... test body ...
```c++
TEST_F(TestCaseName, TestName) {
... test body ...

this must be the name of the test fixture class. You've probably guessed: `_F`
is for fixture.

The above uses both `ASSERT_*` and `EXPECT_*` assertions. The rule of thumb is
to use `EXPECT_*` when you want the test to continue to reveal more errors
after the assertion failure, and use `ASSERT_*` when continuing after failure
doesn't make sense. For example, the second assertion in the `Dequeue` test is
`ASSERT_TRUE(n != NULL)`, as we need to dereference the pointer `n` later,
which would lead to a segfault when `n` is `NULL`.

# Invoking the Tests #
## Invoking the Tests
`TEST()` and `TEST_F()` implicitly register their tests with Google Test. So, unlike with many other C++ testing frameworks, you don't have to re-list all your defined tests in order to run them.
`TEST()` and `TEST_F()` implicitly register their tests with googletest. So,
unlike with many other C++ testing frameworks, you don't have to re-list all
your defined tests in order to run them.
After defining your tests, you can run them with `RUN_ALL_TESTS()` , which returns `0` if all the tests are successful, or `1` otherwise. Note that `RUN_ALL_TESTS()` runs _all tests_ in your link unit -- they can be from different test cases, or even different source files.
After defining your tests, you can run them with `RUN_ALL_TESTS()` , which
returns `0` if all the tests are successful, or `1` otherwise. Note that
`RUN_ALL_TESTS()` runs *all tests* in your link unit -- they can be from
different test cases, or even different source files.
When invoked, the `RUN_ALL_TESTS()` macro:
1. Saves the state of all Google Test flags.
1. Creates a test fixture object for the first test.
1. Initializes it via `SetUp()`.
1. Runs the test on the fixture object.
1. Cleans up the fixture via `TearDown()`.
1. Deletes the fixture.
1. Restores the state of all Google Test flags.
1. Repeats the above steps for the next test, until all tests have run.
In addition, if the test fixture's constructor generates a fatal failure in
step 2, there is no point for step 3 - 5 and they are thus skipped. Similarly,
if step 3 generates a fatal failure, step 4 will be skipped.
1. Saves the state of all googletest flags
_Important_: You must not ignore the return value of `RUN_ALL_TESTS()`, or `gcc`
will give you a compiler error. The rationale for this design is that the
automated testing service determines whether a test has passed based on its
exit code, not on its stdout/stderr output; thus your `main()` function must
return the value of `RUN_ALL_TESTS()`.
* Creates a test fixture object for the first test.
Also, you should call `RUN_ALL_TESTS()` only **once**. Calling it more than once
conflicts with some advanced Google Test features (e.g. thread-safe death
tests) and thus is not supported.

## Writing the main() Function
In `google3`, the simplest approach is to use the default main() function
provided by linking in `"//testing/base/public:gtest_main"`. If that doesn't
cover what you need, you should write your own main() function, which should
return the value of `RUN_ALL_TESTS()`. Link to `"//testing/base/public:gunit"`.

in programs compiled in `UNICODE` mode as well.
But maybe you think that writing all those main() functions is too much work? We agree with you completely and that's why Google Test provides a basic implementation of main(). If it fits your needs, then just link your test with gtest\_main library and you are good to go.

## Important note for Visual C++ users ##
If you put your tests into a library and your `main()` function is in a different library or in your .exe file, those tests will not run. The reason is a [bug](https://connect.microsoft.com/feedback/viewfeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=244410&siteid=210) in Visual C++. When you define your tests, Google Test creates certain static objects to register them. These objects are not referenced from elsewhere but their constructors are still supposed to run. When Visual C++ linker sees that nothing in the library is referenced from other places it throws the library out. You have to reference your library with tests from your main program to keep the linker from discarding it. Here is how to do it. Somewhere in your library code declare a function:
```
__declspec(dllexport) int PullInMyLibrary() { return 0; }
```
If you put your tests in a static library (not DLL) then `__declspec(dllexport)` is not required. Now, in your main program, write a code that invokes that function:
```
int PullInMyLibrary();
static int dummy = PullInMyLibrary();
```
This will keep your tests referenced and will make them register themselves at startup.
NOTE: `ParseGUnitFlags()` is deprecated in favor of `InitGoogleTest()`.
In addition, if you define your tests in a static library, add `/OPT:NOREF` to your main program linker options. If you use MSVC++ IDE, go to your .exe project properties/Configuration Properties/Linker/Optimization and set References setting to `Keep Unreferenced Data (/OPT:NOREF)`. This will keep Visual C++ linker from discarding individual symbols generated by your tests from the final executable.
## Known Limitations
There is one more pitfall, though. If you use Google Test as a static library (that's how it is defined in gtest.vcproj) your tests must also reside in a static library. If you have to have them in a DLL, you _must_ change Google Test to build into a DLL as well. Otherwise your tests will not run correctly or will not run at all. The general conclusion here is: make your life easier - do not write your tests in libraries!
# Where to Go from Here #
Congratulations! You've learned the Google Test basics. You can start writing
and running Google Test tests, read some [samples](samples.md), or continue with
[AdvancedGuide](advanced.md), which describes many more useful Google Test features.
# Known Limitations #
Google Test is designed to be thread-safe. The implementation is
thread-safe on systems where the `pthreads` library is available. It
is currently _unsafe_ to use Google Test assertions from two threads
concurrently on other systems (e.g. Windows). In most tests this is
not an issue as usually the assertions are done in the main thread. If
you want to help, you can volunteer to implement the necessary
synchronization primitives in `gtest-port.h` for your platform.
