RCUNIT is a robust C unit testing framework. Requiring only an ANSI compliant C compiler, RCUNIT is a highly portable unit testing tool.

• RCUNIT 0.9 has been released! This is a stable preprelease of version 1.0 and there were no major functionality changes from version 0.1.

RCUNIT Features

• Uniform interfaces for managing test cases
• Optional setup and tear down functions for each test case (test function)
• Optional setup and tear down functions for each test suite (test module)
• Multiple user-defined test registries and test suites for highly structured test cases
• Default test suite and test registry for administering few test cases
• Output redirection mechanism for redirecting log and test run report when file I/O facility is not available in the test platform
• Logging facility for info, warning, and fatal log messages callable anywhere in the user test code.
• Log handler mechanism for redirecting logs
• Optional test run callback function (test run hook)
• Alternative mechanism to ANSI C's assert() function (non-test run assertions). This provides uniform handling of assertion failure records
• Optional assertion failure callback function (assertion hook) for non-test run assertions
• A runtime memory leak check facility
• An extensible exception handling mechanism

Examples

• Test Codes
• Test Run Report
