Re: [Cppunit-devel] cppunit tests from config file

[CppUnit d. m. l. <cpp...@li...>]

C++ does not support reflection. The only way to refer to a method is by=20
using explicitly its name inside the code, like in your example.

The most elegant way to do this is to use the CPPUNIT macros :

class CMyTest : public CPPUNIT_NS::TestFixture
{
     CPPUNIT_TEST_SUITE(CMyTest);
     CPPUNIT_TEST(test1);
     CPPUNIT_TEST(test2);
     CPPUNIT_TEST_SUITE_END();

private:
     void test1();
     void test2();
};

CPPUNIT_TEST_SUITE_REGISTRATION(CMyTest);

This will generate some kind of CppUnit-specific reflection, so one can=20
later refer to the methods by name :

CPPUNIT_NS::TestRunner runner;

CPPUNIT_NS::TestFactoryRegistry& registry =3D=20
CPPUNIT_NS::TestFactoryRegistry::getRegistry();

CPPUNIT_NS::Test* pAllTests =3D registry.makeTest();

...

runner.addTest(pAllTests);

runner.run(result, "CMyTest::test2"); // Referred by name as string
