# GoogleTest
|
|
|
|
### Announcements
|
|
|
|
#### Live at Head
|
|
|
|
GoogleTest now follows the
|
|
[Abseil Live at Head philosophy](https://abseil.io/about/philosophy#upgrade-support).
|
|
We recommend
|
|
[updating to the latest commit in the `main` branch as often as possible](https://github.com/abseil/abseil-cpp/blob/master/FAQ.md#what-is-live-at-head-and-how-do-i-do-it).
|
|
|
|
#### Documentation Updates
|
|
|
|
Our documentation is now live on GitHub Pages at
|
|
https://google.github.io/googletest/. We recommend browsing the documentation on
|
|
GitHub Pages rather than directly in the repository.
|
|
|
|
#### Release 1.13.0
|
|
|
|
[Release 1.13.0](https://github.com/google/googletest/releases/tag/v1.13.0) is
|
|
now available.
|
|
|
|
The 1.13.x branch requires at least C++14.
|
|
|
|
#### Continuous Integration
|
|
|
|
We use Google's internal systems for continuous integration. \
|
|
GitHub Actions were added for the convenience of open source contributors. They
|
|
are exclusively maintained by the open source community and not used by the
|
|
GoogleTest team.
|
|
|
|
#### Coming Soon
|
|
|
|
* We are planning to take a dependency on
|
|
[Abseil](https://github.com/abseil/abseil-cpp).
|
|
* More documentation improvements are planned.
|
|
|
|
## Welcome to **GoogleTest**, Google's C++ test framework!
|
|
|
|
This repository is a merger of the formerly separate GoogleTest and GoogleMock
|
|
projects. These were so closely related that it makes sense to maintain and
|
|
release them together.
|
|
|
|
### Getting Started
|
|
|
|
See the [GoogleTest User's Guide](https://google.github.io/googletest/) for
|
|
documentation. We recommend starting with the
|
|
[GoogleTest Primer](https://google.github.io/googletest/primer.html).
|
|
|
|
More information about building GoogleTest can be found at
|
|
[googletest/README.md](googletest/README.md).
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
* An [xUnit](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XUnit) test framework.
|
|
* Test discovery.
|
|
* A rich set of assertions.
|
|
* User-defined assertions.
|
|
* Death tests.
|
|
* Fatal and non-fatal failures.
|
|
* Value-parameterized tests.
|
|
* Type-parameterized tests.
|
|
* Various options for running the tests.
|
|
* XML test report generation.
|
|
|
|
## Supported Platforms

|
|
|
GoogleTest follows Google's
|
|
[Foundational C++ Support Policy](https://opensource.google/documentation/policies/cplusplus-support).
|

|
## Who Is Using GoogleTest?
|
|
|
|
In addition to many internal projects at Google, GoogleTest is also used by the
|
|
following notable projects:
|
|
|
|
* The [Chromium projects](http://www.chromium.org/) (behind the Chrome browser
|
|
and Chrome OS).
|
|
* The [LLVM](http://llvm.org/) compiler.
|
|
* [Protocol Buffers](https://github.com/google/protobuf), Google's data
|
|
interchange format.
|
