Bugs free software is a dream of every person who involve in software development process. But with the today complex software systems and even more featured requirements, it is quite a challenge to overcome this specific expectation.
There are number of methodologies and tools for bug tracking, debugging, error tracing and various level to testing. But as the developers unit testing and integrated testing are the most important kind of testing that require to implement a bug free software. So in this article I'm going to show you some tips and methodologies of unit testing.
As C developers knows unit testing for unmanaged C is a quit cumbersome and there is no standers way to do the unit testing for development environment. Normally expert developers prefers the TDD (Test driven development) for error less software and as a confident development method that support to maintain and extend the already developed software. Most of the Unmanaged C developers developers mostly use some kind of third party Unit Test frame-works such as 'Boost Test', 'Google Test' or 'cppUnit' even they works on windows environment. Actually these unit testing frameworks have some unique features and capabilities than.NET unit testing framework, such as object mocking and various Assert rules. But when you are working with Visual Studio IDE, using.NET unit testing framework may easy to use and compatible than other unit testing frameworks.
Feb 19, 2018 - NET on macOS, you can use Visual Studio Code, which you can. When you are done with recording, select C# Unit Testing from the list of.
But even some developers uses.NET unit testing capability for MFC or ATL projects (Manage C), Most of them don't have idea how to use it with unmanaged C development. But If you are involving in DLL or LIB development using C it is easy to do unit testing by adding the static or dynamic library as reference to the testing project. But in this article I'm going to introduce you how the set-up unit testing for for Win32 console application (Unmanaged C) (But even this is possible with Win32 windows applications) in Visual Studio 2010 with Windows operation system. Even I describing this for Visual Studio 2010, It may applicable with other versions such as 2012,2008 or 2005. So lets start as step by step guide from here. Today I'm going to develop a simple calculator with unit testing for the functionality. Add Main Project 1.
![Visual Visual](/uploads/1/2/5/5/125501416/288037732.jpg)
Open visual studio 2010 and Create a new project by using 'File' - 'New' 2. In new project window go to right hand side panel - select Visual C - select Win32 3. In the Right hand side panel select 'Win32 Console Application' 4. Type 'calculator' in Name text field bellow and select the location as you need. Then next window (Win32 Application Wizard) just click next 6. Then next window select 'Empty Project' and keep setting as this image.

Then click finish So this is our main project and main method should be in this project for initiate the application. In the Solution explorer expand calculator - right click on 'Source File' - 'Add' - 'New Item' - select 'C File (.cpp)' 8. Type the name 'main' in Name text box and click add Add Lib Project 1. Right click Solution in 'Solution explorer' and select 'Add' - 'New Project' 2. Next window in left pane select Win32 and in right pane select 'Win 32 Console Application' 3. Type 'calculatorlib' in Name text box and click ok. In next window just click next 5.
In next window select Static library and keep other setting as image. Then click finish. Hey hi, I went through the blog and followed each step still I'm not able to run test. It builds the all 3 projects successfully.
When I run test it goes infinitely and test explorer status bar keeps going not sure whats happening behind.when I press F5, its keeps giving message 'The thread 'Win32 Thread' (0x1230) has exited with code 0 (0x0). The thread 'Win32 Thread' (0x25ec) has exited with code 0 (0x0). The thread ' (0xf3c) has exited with code 0 (0x0). The thread ' (0x2500) has exited with code 0 (0x0). The thread 'Win32 Thread' (0xf3c) has exited with code 0 (0x0).
The thread 'Win32 Thread' (0x2500) has exited with code 0 (0x0).' Into the output window.
