TinyTest Example Project

This is a sample project that demonstrates how to use TinyTest in a CMake project.

Prerequisites

• CMake 3.14 or higher
• C++17 compatible compiler
• TinyTest installed (the build script will install it if needed)

Building and Running

On Linux/macOS

# Make the build script executable
chmod +x build.sh

# Run the build script
./build.sh

On Windows

build.bat

How it Works

1. The build script:

   • Checks if TinyTest is installed. If not, it builds and installs it
   • Creates a build directory
   • Configures the project with CMake
   • Builds the project
   • Runs the tests with CTest

2. The CMake configuration:

   • Finds TinyTest with find_package(TinyTest REQUIRED)
   • Links the example test executable against TinyTest::tinytest
   • Registers the test with CTest

3. The test code:

   • Includes the TinyTest header
   • Defines a test suite using TinyTest's API
   • Runs the tests and reports results

Understanding the Code

The main.cpp file demonstrates:

• How to define a function to test
• How to create test suites
• How to define tests with expected output
• How to execute test suites
• How to print and interpret test results
