This project is a build2 package repository that provides access to doctest, a C++ testing framework that brings the ability to have tests written directly in the production code thanks to a fast, transparent and flexible test runner with a clean interface.

Usage

Make sure to add the stable section of the cppget.org repository to your project's repositories.manifest to be able to fetch this package.

:
role: prerequisite
location: https://pkg.cppget.org/1/stable
# trust: ...

If the stable section of cppget.org is not an option then add this Git repository itself instead as a prerequisite.

:
role: prerequisite
location: https://github.com/build2-packaging/doctest.git

Add the respective dependency in your project's manifest file to make the package available for import.

depends: doctest ^2.4.11

To import the library target that already implements the main function, include the following declaration in a buildfile.

import doctest = doctest%lib{doctest-main}

If you want to customize the testing process by providing your own main, use the following header-only library target instead.

import doctest = doctest%lib{doctest}

Configuration

doctest itself already comes with various configuration options. Some of these can be accessed by the package configuration. For an explanation, refer to doctest's configuration documentation. The following variables need to be provided globally and will affect both library targets, lib{doctest} and lib{doctest-main}.

config [bool] config.doctest.disable                 ?= false
config [bool] config.doctest.treat_char_as_string    ?= false
config [bool] config.doctest.use_std_headers         ?= false
config [bool] config.doctest.no_exceptions           ?= false
config [bool] config.doctest.no_contradicting_inline ?= false

The following configuration variables only need to be set for the implementation unit and will only affect the lib{doctest-main} library target. Define their respective pre-processor macros for doctest implementation unit that implement their own main function and only link to lib{doctest}.

config [string] config.doctest.options_prefix      ?= [null]
config [bool] config.doctest.no_unprefixed_options ?= false
config [bool] config.doctest.colors_none           ?= false
config [bool] config.doctest.colors_windows        ?= false
config [bool] config.doctest.colors_ansi           ?= false
config [bool] config.doctest.windows_seh           ?= false
config [bool] config.doctest.no_windows_seh        ?= false
config [bool] config.doctest.posix_signals         ?= false
config [bool] config.doctest.no_posix_signals      ?= false
config [bool] config.doctest.no_multithreading     ?= false
config [bool] config.doctest.no_multi_lane_atomics ?= false

• Some configuration options cannot be provided by the package. Use them only in your doctest implementation file when linking against lib{doctest} for providing your own main function.
  • DOCTEST_CONFIG_IMPLEMENT_WITH_MAIN
  • DOCTEST_CONFIG_IMPLEMENT
  • DOCTEST_CONFIG_IMPLEMENTATION_IN_DLL
• Some configuration options do not need to be defined globally. You may also define them only for specific source files when they are actually needed. As of such, no global package configuration variables are provided for these options. Instead, define their respective pre-processor macros in the required units to enable them.
  • DOCTEST_CONFIG_NO_SHORT_MACRO_NAMES
  • DOCTEST_CONFIG_REQUIRE_STRINGIFICATION_FOR_ALL_USED_TYPES
  • DOCTEST_CONFIG_DOUBLE_STRINGIFY
  • DOCTEST_CONFIG_SUPER_FAST_ASSERTS
  • DOCTEST_CONFIG_VOID_CAST_EXPRESSIONS
  • DOCTEST_CONFIG_NO_COMPARISON_WARNING_SUPPRESSION
  • DOCTEST_CONFIG_NO_TRY_CATCH_IN_ASSERTS
  • DOCTEST_CONFIG_NO_EXCEPTIONS_BUT_WITH_ALL_ASSERTS
  • DOCTEST_CONFIG_ASSERTION_PARAMETERS_BY_VALUE
  • DOCTEST_CONFIG_INCLUDE_TYPE_TRAITS
  • DOCTEST_CONFIG_ASSERTS_RETURN_VALUES
  • DOCTEST_CONFIG_EVALUATE_ASSERTS_EVEN_WHEN_DISABLED
  • DOCTEST_CONFIG_NO_INCLUDE_IOSTREAM
  • DOCTEST_CONFIG_HANDLE_EXCEPTION

Issues and Notes

• The tests fail for MinGW on Windows as different line numbers for assertions in the file asserts_used_outside_of_tests.cpp are generated and compared to expected line numbers in asserts_used_outside_of_tests.cpp.txt. This issue is not caused by the build system and must be fixed upstream. Fortunately, it is not a major problem and the package can be used without concerns on all available platforms.
• According to the upstream build system, lib{doctest-main} does not need to export pthread for multi-threading. Also, basic unit tests run perfectly fine. As of that, pthread is neither exported by lib{doctest} nor by lib{doctest-main}. However, in feature tests, pthread is used to test concurrency. Consequently, be aware of linking pthread when needed.

Contributing

Thanks in advance for your help and contribution to keep this package up-to-date. For now, please, file an issue on GitHub for everything that is not described below.

Recommend Updating Version

Please, file an issue on GitHub with the new recommended version.

Update Version by Pull Request

1. Fork the repository on GitHub and clone it to your local machine.
2. Run git submodule init and git submodule update to get the current upstream directory.
3. Inside the upstream directory, checkout the new library version X.Y.Z by calling git checkout vX.Y.Z that you want to be packaged.
4. If needed, change source files, buildfiles, and symbolic links accordingly to create a working build2 package. Make sure not to directly depend on the upstream directory inside the build system but use symbolic links instead.
5. Update library version in manifest file if it has changed or add package update by using +n for the n-th update.
6. Make an appropriate commit message by using imperative mood and a capital letter at the start and push the new commit to the master branch.
7. Run bdep ci and test for errors.
8. If everything works fine, make a pull request on GitHub and write down the bdep ci link to your CI tests.
9. After a successful pull request, we will run the appropriate commands to publish a new package version.

Update Version Directly if You Have Permissions

1. Inside the upstream directory, checkout the new library version X.Y.Z by calling git checkout vX.Y.Z that you want to be packaged.
2. If needed, change source files, buildfiles, and symbolic links accordingly to create a working build2 package. Make sure not to directly depend on the upstream directory inside the build system but use symbolic links instead.
3. Update library version in manifest file if it has changed or add package update by using +n for the n-th update.
