-\subsection inside_cmake_addtest_unit Unit testing in SimGrid
-
-If you want to test a specific function or set of functions, you need
-a unit test. Edit
-<project/directory>/buildtools/Cmake/UnitTesting.cmake to add your
-source file to the TEST_CFILES list, and add the corresponding unit
-file to the TEST_UNITS list. For example, if your file is toto.c,
-your unit file will be toto_unit.c. The full path to your file must be
-provided, but the unit file will always be in src/ directly.
-
-Then, you want to actually add your tests in the source file. All the
-tests must be protected by "#ifdef SIMGRID_TEST" so that they don't
-get included in the regular build. Then, you want to add a test suite
-that will contain a bunch of tests (in Junit, that would be a test
-unit) with the macro #XBT_TEST_SUITE, and populate it with a bunch of
-actual tests with the macro #XBT_TEST_UNIT (sorry for the mischosen
-names if you are used to junit). Just look at the dynar example (or
-any other) to see how it works in practice. Do not hesitate to stress
-test your code this way, but make sure that it runs reasonably fast,
-or nobody will run "ctest" before commiting code.
-
-If you are interested in the mechanic turning this into an actual
-test, check the <project/directory>/tools/sg_unit_extractor.pl script.
-
-To actually run your tests once you're done, run "make testall", that
-builds the binary containing all our unit tests and run it. This
-binary allows you to chose which suite you want to test:
-
-\verbatim
-$ testall --help # revise how it goes if you forgot
-$ testall --dump-only # learn about all existing test suites
-$ testall --tests=-all # run no test at all
-$ testall --tests=-all,+foo # run only the foo test suite.
-$ testall --tests=-all,+foo:bar # run only the bar test from the foo suite.
-$ testall --tests=-foo:bar # run all tests but the bar test from the foo suite.
-\endverbatim

-\subsection inside_cmake_addtest_integration Integration testing in SimGrid
-
-If you want to test a full binary (such as an example), then you
-probably want to use the tesh binary that ensures that the output
-produced by a command perfectly matches the expected output. In
-particular, this is very precious to ensure that no change modifies
-the timings computed by the models without notice.
-
-The first step is to write a tesh file for your test, containing the
-command to run, the provided input (if any, but almost no SimGrid test
-provide such an input) and the expected output. Check the tesh man
-page for more details.
-
-Tesh is sometimes annoying as you have to ensure that the expected
-output will always be exactly the same. In particular, your should not
-output machine dependent informations, nor memory adresses as they
-would change on each run. Several steps can be used here, such as the
-obfucation of the memory adresses unless the verbose logs are
-displayed (using the #XBT_LOG_ISENABLED() macro), or the modification
-of the log formats to hide the timings when they depend on the host
-machine.
-
-Then you have to request cmake to run your test when "ctest" is
-launched. For that, you have to modify source
-<project/directory>/buildtools/Cmake/AddTests.cmake. Make sure to pick
-a wise name for your test. It is often useful to check a category of
-tests together. The only way to do so in ctest is to use the -R
-argument that specifies a regular expression that the test names must
-match. For example, you can run all MSG test with "ctest -R msg" That
-explains the importance of the test names.
-
-Once the name is chosen, create a new test by adding a line similar to
-the following (assuming that you use tesh as expected).
-
-\verbatim
-# ADD_TEST(test-name ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin/tesh <options> <tesh-file>)
-# option --setenv bindir set the directory containing the binary
-# --setenv srcdir set the directory containing the source file
-# --cd set the working directory
-ADD_TEST(my-test-name ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin/tesh
- --setenv bindir=${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/examples/my-test/
- --setenv srcdir=${CMAKE_HOME_DIRECTORY}/examples/my-test/
- --cd ${CMAKE_HOME_DIRECTORY}/examples/my-test/
- ${CMAKE_HOME_DIRECTORY}/examples/msg/io/io.tesh
-)
-\endverbatim
-
-If you prefer to not use tesh for some reasons, prefer the following
-form:
-
-\verbatim
-# ADD_TEST(NAME <name>]
-# [WORKING_DIRECTORY dir]
-# COMMAND <command> [arg1 [arg2 ...]])
-ADD_TEST(NAME my-test-name
- WORKING_DIRECTORY ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/examples/my-test/
- COMMAND Hello
-)
-\endverbatim
-
-As usual, you must run "make distcheck" after modifying the cmake files,
-to ensure that you did not forget any files in the distributed archive.
