C Unit Testing Tool with test data/items in CSV file. (Linux Platform)
[ Background of this project or tool ]
This project or tool performs a unit testing on a specified method or methods. You can
test as many methods as you can. You can create a test driver for testing a function/method
with test data for the function/method parameters coming from a CSV file. You can
test a single function/method ten times or even a hundred times depending on the no. of your
test data/items you created in the CSV file source. This eliminates the need for creating
a single test driver for every test data or item. In this code a single test driver/function
can run or test multiple test data/items.
[ How to use this project or tool? ]
1. Create a unit test data/items in any CSV file as shown in the example file "UT_Test_Sample.csv".
The file is of "*.csv" format. The test data or test items are comma separated.
The format for the test items is shown below.
Unit Test item format :
[function name][expected result][no. of parameters (nth)][parameter 1][parameter 2] up to [parameter (nth)]
2. Go to the performUTByItem() method in the UnitTestMgr.c file and modify it to run and
link your test code drivers. Examples of test driver functions/methods are shown below.
Ex. test_Function_1() up to test_Function_12() as shown in the UnitTestMgr.h and UnitTestMgr.c file.
You can change the name of your test driver functions/methods to any name you want.
In test driver function/method you can use the functions/methods listed below to
compare the actual result from your expected result as placed in your unit test
items/data (in the CSV file).
void assertEqualCh( Text_pMap pUTItemMap, TCHAR chActual );
void assertEqualInt( Text_pMap pUTItemMap, int nActual );
void assertNotEqualCh( Text_pMap pUTItemMap, TCHAR chActual );
void assertNotEqualInt( Text_pMap pUTItemMap, int nActual );
3. Open the CommonDef.h file and modify it to link your test function drivers.
The function/method you want to test should be link in this file. The function/method
names should be found in your test code data/items ( in the CSV file ).
4. Run the main function/method "int main(void)" in the C_UnitTestingTool.c file.
Ex. Your test data/items are located in the file UT_Test_Items.csv in D:\Java_Unit_Testing
folder or any other folder.
After openning and running the unit testing process, the application will create and/or logged
the results in the file UT_Test_Sample_UT_LOG.csv file. The program will append "UT_LOG.csv"
to the file name of your unit test data CSV file.
Ex.
Input CSV file [unit test data/items] : D:\C_Unit_Testing\UT_Test_Sample.csv file.
Output CSV file [result or log file] : D:\C_Unit_Testing\UT_Test_Sample_UT_LOG.csv file.
