Hi,
I'm currently working on some libraries [1] which allows you advanced testing
of daemons. Especially ones which require a network in testing. However for
using this I need some features in CMake. This should be a discussion about
these features. Maybe others have ideas and comments.
What I would like to have is a feature to group tests. By default everything
is in a standard test group. But you can define a special one:
add_test(NAME <name> [CONFIGURATIONS [Debug|Release|...]]
[GROUP <test_group>]
[WORKING_DIRECTORY dir]
COMMAND <command> [arg1 [arg2 ...]])
For a test group I need a way to define a setup/teardown command. Some tests
might require a special setup on the machine to be able to run correctly. Like
setting up a fake network.
set_test_group_properties(PROPERTIES
SETUP <command> [arg1 [arg2 ...]]
TEARDOWN <command> [arg1 [arg2 ...]]
ENVIRONMENT <env>)
The setup function is called before the first test of the group is executed
and the teardown functions after the last test finished. The environment
should be obvious.
Please comment.
