gtester()

Name
gtester - test running utility

SYNOPSIS
gtester [OPTION…] test-program

DESCRIPTION

gtester is a utility to run unit tests that have been written using the GLib test framework.

Since GLib 2.62, gtester-report is deprecated. Use TAP for reporting test results instead, and feed it to the test harness provided by your build system.

When called with the -o option, gtester writes an XML report of the test results, which can be converted into HTML using the gtester-report utility.

OPTIONS

-h, --help Print help and exit.

-v, --verbose Print version information and exit.

--g-fatal-warnings Make warnings fatal.

-k, --keep-going Continue running after tests failed.

-l List paths of available test cases.

-m=<MODE> Run test cases in MODE, which can be one of:

•   perf

    Run performance tests.

•   slow, thorough

    Run slow tests, or repeat non-deterministic tests more often.

•   quick

    Do not run slow or performance tests, or do extra repeats of non-deterministic tests (default).

•   undefined

    Run test cases that deliberately provoke checks or assertion failures, if implemented (default).

•   no-undefined

    Do not run test cases that deliberately provoke checks or assertion failures.

    -p=<TEST-PATH> Only run test cases matching TEST-PATH.

    -s=<TEST-PATH> Skip test cases matching TEST-PATH.

    --seed=<SEED-STRING> Run all test cases with random number seed SEED-STRING.

    -o=<LOG-FILE> Write the test log to LOG-FILE.
