CUnit, a lightweight system for writing, administering, and running unit test cases in C is now available for Fedora.
$ sudo yum install cunit
An example code, is given below:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include "CUnit/Basic.h"
static FILE* temp_file = NULL;
int init_suite1(void)
{
if (NULL == (temp_file = fopen("temp.txt", "w+"))) {
return -1;
}
else {
return 0;
}
}
int clean_suite1(void)
{
if (0 != fclose(temp_file)) {
return -1;
}
else {
temp_file = NULL;
return 0;
}
}
void testFPRINTF(void)
{
int i1 = 10;
if (NULL != temp_file) {
CU_ASSERT(0 == fprintf(temp_file, ""));
CU_ASSERT(2 == fprintf(temp_file, "Q\n"));
CU_ASSERT(7 == fprintf(temp_file, "i1 = %d", i1));
}
}
void testFREAD(void)
{
unsigned char buffer[20];
if (NULL != temp_file) {
rewind(temp_file);
CU_ASSERT(9 == fread(buffer, sizeof(unsigned char), 20, temp_file));
CU_ASSERT(0 == strncmp(buffer, "Q\ni1 = 10", 9));
}
}
int main()
{
CU_pSuite pSuite = NULL;
/* initialize the CUnit test registry */
if (CUE_SUCCESS != CU_initialize_registry())
return CU_get_error();
/* add a suite to the registry */
pSuite = CU_add_suite("Suite_1", init_suite1, clean_suite1);
if (NULL == pSuite) {
CU_cleanup_registry();
return CU_get_error();
}
/* add the tests to the suite */
/* NOTE - ORDER IS IMPORTANT - MUST TEST fread() AFTER fprintf() */
if ((NULL == CU_add_test(pSuite, "test of fprintf()", testFPRINTF)) ||
(NULL == CU_add_test(pSuite, "test of fread()", testFREAD)))
{
CU_cleanup_registry();
return CU_get_error();
}
/* Run all tests using the CUnit Basic interface */
CU_basic_set_mode(CU_BRM_VERBOSE);
CU_basic_run_tests();
CU_cleanup_registry();
return CU_get_error();
}
Compile it using:
$ gcc test.c -o test -lcunit
Output is given below:
