A minimalist and elegant test library for C++11
I know that there are thoudands of test frameworks for C++ out there, and most of them are feature complete compared to Jester. But the reason I made Jester is that sometimes you just need a simple and lightweight solution to add some tests to your personal project.
Jester is heavily inspired by Mocha.
Jester is a header-only library so the only thing you need to do is download jester.hpp in this repository, drop it into your project directory and include it.
// test.cpp
#include "jester.hpp"
using namespace jester;
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
describe("thing", []() {
it("this should fail", []() {
assert_equal(2, 3);
});
it("this should succeed", []() {
assert(true);
});
describe("sub-thing", []() {
int x = 1;
before_each([&]() { x = 3; });
it("this should fail", []() {
throw std::runtime_error("whoops");
});
it("this should succeed", [&x]() {
assert_equal(3, x);
});
});
});
return 0;
}Contributions are greatly appreciated. If you feel that Jester lacks a feature that you need, you can go ahead an make a pull request.
