Hello,
I am very new to Boost. I have to write unit test cases in order to increase the code coverage of a C source code.
I am not getting the approach to start writing the test cases.
As it is a code C code, there are huge number of functions, one calling the other, and a lot of global variables.
Can anyone please help me out to get the approach to start writing Unit test cases.
You want to test every aspect of the expected behavior of each function. Dealing with global variables is a pain, though. You should probably use a text fixture to reset them all for each test case.
And, I have used a "c++" compiler for compiling small Boost programs. I am getting error while using "GCC" compiler. Can we use GCC compiler for compiling Boost program? How can we do this?
c++ is GCC. It just adds the C++ runtime libraries to the linker and treats source files as C++. In Christ, Steven Watanabe
