Confer

Confer is a C and C++ unit testing library written in C. It is currently only available on Linux, and limited to GCC.

Features

Confer comes with a number of tools and feaures out of the box.

• 20+ built-in assertions for most common types
• Custom assertions
• Fast build (the example compiles and runs in ~100 ms)
• Lightning-fast runs (the example runs in 637 µs on a 7th-gen i5 processor !)
• Extra-light library written in C, no dynamic memory allocation (hence no memory leaks)
• A handy tool to manage projects and run tests (not compulsory)

Preview

To start using Confer, simply , and include it in your test file:

#include <confer.h>

Then, after calling the initialization function, you will be able to write your first tests:

void main(void) {
  cf_init(); // nothing more needed
  cf_test(test_my_function); // call subtests
  cf_print_call_tree(); // show the results
}

void test_my_function(CFTEST) { // make it a test
  assert_int_equal(my_function(0), 1);
  assert_int_greater(my_function(2), 7);
}
