Title |
Unit Test with GoogleTest Activity |
Overview |
Participants install the Google Test library and run an existing C++ project to see individual test results and confirm successful installation. |
Prerequisite Knowledge |
Have set up a development environment that will compile C++. Configurations differ slightly from one operating system to another, but should work on most. |
Learning Objectives |
Participant should be able to learn how to configure a unit testing framework and read and interpret unit test results. |
Directions:
Students:
- First, you will need to install Google Test on your machine. The code is provided on GitHub.com/google/googletest
- I suggest placing Google Test in a location where other source libraries are placed, such as
/usr/local/include
- Next, go to a different directory (such as one you use to organize your files for this course, or a folder where you store your own code). Clone this cpp-gtest repository.
- Once cloned, edit Makefile find this line:
GTEST_DIR = /usr/local/include/gtest
and change it to the directory you placed Google Test. Provide the entire path to the directory in Google Test that has the following folders/files:
internal
gtest.h
gtest-typed-test.h
gtest-test-part.h
(and more .h files...) - Once you've edited the file, save it and run the command
Make
- Next, run the command
./RandoTest
- The output should show that one test has been run (and passed).
- Take a screenshot of this output and submit the image for this assignment
Deliverables:
A screen shot of the automated test results.
Assessment:
Students should have a screen shot of GoogleTest results that show that a test has been run and passed in command line output.

Level of Difficulty |
Configuring the development environment with the GoogleTest library takes intermediate expertise of operating system command-line navigation |
Estimated Time to Completion |
Download and configuration may take 5 to 20 minutes, depending on the students' operating systems and existing development environment. |
Materials/Environment |
Need a development environment with support for Makefile and C++ compilation (g++ recommended) |
