4.2 使用Catch2库进行单元测试
NOTE:此示例代码可以在 https://github.com/dev-cafe/cmake-cookbook/tree/v1.0/chapter-04/recipe-02 中找到,包含一个C++的示例。该示例在CMake 3.5版(或更高版本)中是有效的,并且已经在GNU/Linux、macOS和Windows上进行过测试。
前面的配置中,使用返回码来表示test.cpp
测试的成功或失败。对于简单功能没问题,但是通常情况下,我们想要使用一个测试框架,它提供了相关基础设施来运行更复杂的测试,包括固定方式进行测试,与数值公差的比较,以及在测试失败时输出更好的错误报告。这里,我们用目前比较流行的测试库Catch2( https://github.com/catchorg/Catch2 )来进行演示。这个测试框架有个很好的特性,它可以通过单个头库包含在项目中进行测试,这使得编译和更新框架特别容易。这个配置中,我们将CMake和Catch2结合使用,来测试上一个求和代码。
我们需要catch.hpp
头文件,可以从 https://github.com/catchorg/Catch2 (我们使用的是版本2.0.1)下载,并将它与test.cpp
一起放在项目的根目录下。
准备工作
main.cpp
、sum_integers.cpp
和sum_integers.hpp
与之前的示例相同,但将更新test.cpp
:
#include "sum_integers.hpp"
// this tells catch to provide a main()
// only do this in one cpp file
#define CATCH_CONFIG_MAIN
#include "catch.hpp"
#include <vector>
TEST_CASE("Sum of integers for a short vector", "[short]")
{
auto integers = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};
REQUIRE(sum_integers(integers) == 15);
}
TEST_CASE("Sum of integers for a longer vector", "[long]")
{
std::vector<int> integers;
for (int i = 1; i < 1001; ++i)
{
integers.push_back(i);
}
REQUIRE(sum_integers(integers) == 500500);
}
catch.hpp
头文件可以从https://github.com/catchorg/Catch2 (版本为2.0.1)下载,并将它与test.cpp
放在项目的根目录中。
具体实施
使用Catch2库,需要修改之前的所使用CMakeList.txt
:
保持
CMakeLists.txt
大多数部分内容不变:# set minimum cmake version
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.5 FATAL_ERROR)
# project name and language
project(recipe-02 LANGUAGES CXX)
# require C++11
set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 11)
set(CMAKE_CXX_EXTENSIONS OFF)
set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD_REQUIRED ON)
# example library
add_library(sum_integers sum_integers.cpp)
# main code
add_executable(sum_up main.cpp)
target_link_libraries(sum_up sum_integers)
# testing binary
add_executable(cpp_test test.cpp)
target_link_libraries(cpp_test sum_integers)
对于上一个示例的配置,需要保留一个测试,并重命名它。注意,
--success
选项可传递给单元测试的可执行文件。这是一个Catch2选项,测试成功时,也会有输出:enable_testing()
add_test(
NAME catch_test
COMMAND $<TARGET_FILE:cpp_test> --success
)
就是这样!让我们来配置、构建和测试。CTest中,使用
-V
选项运行测试,以获得单元测试可执行文件的输出:$ mkdir -p build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
$ cmake --build .
$ ctest -V

Catch2将生成一个可执行文件,还可以尝试执行以下命令,以探索单元测试框架提供的选项:
$ ./cpp_test --help
工作原理
Catch2是一个单头文件测试框架,所以不需要定义和构建额外的目标。只需要确保CMake能找到catch.hpp
,从而构建test.cpp
即可。为了方便起见,将它放在与test.cpp
相同的目录中,我们可以选择一个不同的位置,并使用target_include_directory
指示该位置。另一种方法是将头部封装到接口库中,这可以在Catch2文档中说明( https://github.com/catchorg/catch2/blob/maste/docs/build.systems.md#cmake ):
# Prepare "Catch" library for other executables
set(CATCH_INCLUDE_DIR
${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/catch)
add_library(Catch
INTERFACE)
target_include_directories(Catch INTERFACE
${CATCH_INCLUDE_DIR})
然后,我们对库进行如下链接:
target_link_libraries(cpp_test Catch)
回想一下第3中的讨论,在第1章从简单的可执行库到接口库,是CMake提供的伪目标库,这些伪目标库对于指定项目外部目标的需求非常有用。
更多信息
这是一个简单的例子,主要关注CMake。当然,Catch2提供了更多功能。有关Catch2框架的完整文档,可访问 https://github.com/catchorg/Catch2 。
Catch2代码库包含有CMake函数,用于解析Catch测试并自动创建CMake测试,不需要显式地输入add_test()
函数,可见 https://github.com/catchorg/Catch2/blob/master/contrib/ParseAndAddCatchTests.cmake 。
