Test Intro Sample
Tests Description
s2_testintro_cclass
This example covers the following topics:
This demonstrates the declaration and use of a C-class test unit -- a structure with function pointer members and optional member data. The test unit contains the following test cases:
- testBasics_PASS
- calls a simple FUT (function under test) and uses srEXPECT macros to validate the return value. All assertions pass for this test case.
- testBasics_FAIL
- calls the same FUT and uses srEXPECT macros to validate the return value. All assertions fail for this test case.
This example also demonstrates the use of fixturing functions that are automatically called by the STRIDE framework to surround each test case call with setup/teardown functionality. Here, the fixturing simply writes a srLOG message, which can be seen in the test results report.
As with all STRIDE test units, the test cases are executed in the order that they appear in the "C Class".
s2_testintro_flist
This example covers the following topics:
- test_flist test units
- pass/fail macros
- asynchronous code validation
This example demonstrates the declaration and use of a function list test unit (flist) which is made up of individual C linkage test functions. Flists are the simplest kind of test unit that can be created for c-only compilation units, but they lack some of the capabilities of CClass test units (such as member data and the ability to use non-extern functions as tests).
This test unit contains three test cases: the first two are identical to the CClass example above. The third test - testBasics_Asyn_PASS - demonstrates a technique for simple asynchronous event testing by creating a timer using the PAL API and validating that the registered callback was invoked.
s2_testintro_testdoubles
This example covers the following topics:
This example demonstrates the use of STRIDE's test double technique to implement mocks and fakes. The function being doubled for these examples is s2CopyString (in s2_testintro_source.c). The example includes the following test cases:
- testDoubles_Normal
- calls s2CopyString function as part of its testing. s2CopyString, as part of its implementation, calls s2MoveString. s2MoveString will be the target of our doubling; we will be able to test the behavior of s2CopyString while dynamically substituting different implementations of s2MoveString.
- testDoubles_Mock
- does a dynamic replacement of the implementation of the original s2MoveString with a different mock implementation named s2MoveString_Mock. The test calls s2CopyString as before, but within s2CopyString the call is routed to our mock implementation. s2MoveString_Mock verifies that the input string passed to s2CopyString is correctly propagated to its call to s2MoveString.
- testDoubles_Fake
- like the previous test, does a dynamic replacement of s2CopyString's call to s2MoveString, this time to a fake implementation named s2MoveString_Fake. In this case, s2MoveString_Fake forces an error condition. The testDoubles_Fake test verifies that the error is handled as expected by s2CopySting.
s2_testintro_testpoints
This example covers the following topics:
- event verification
* state verification
- asynchronous code validation
The example includes the following test cases:
- testPoints_Event
- uses STRIDE test points to verify the state of a counter implemented in the function s2RegCount. The counter is expected to reset to zero after a specific number of function calls. By firing a test point upon reset, the counter can communicate the reset occurrence to the testPoints_Event test.
- testPoints_States
- uses STRIDE test points to verify the operation of a state machine.
- testPoints_Asyn
- uses STRIDE test points to verify the receipt of an asynchronous event.
