[Cppunit-devel] Silly question in CppUnit

[Erick E. <eer...@op...>]

Hi!

I'm trying to get my arms around CppUnit to figure out whether we can use it easily and I'm having a little problem....

Are there any examples you can point me to that allows me to do something interesting with 

CppUnit::TextUi::TestRunner.run("testname", true); ?

The fact that I can give a name to <run> implies that I can run some (suite?) of tests. My problem is that I completely miss how to register tests by name so they can be run later.

When I step through the debugger into <run>, it goes into code that searches a list (things like RunTestByName). Again, when stepping through here the only test returned is "All Tests" which is the default.

I have a feeling that either I'm totally missing the boat here or what I want to do is not possible. What I'm after is the ability to run a test suite by name from the command-line version.

I couldn't find a discussion of this problem on the net, perhaps I'm just not part of the right newsgroup.

Thanks
