[TicTacToe] Add tests

[mattiadg]

Unit tests and game tests are required. It is useful to learn about test tools in C++.

[Pansaai]

Is there a certain testing framework that should be used, or anything would do ?

I have never done this before but i would like to play around with it and try to implement this.

[mattiadg]

I have never used testing frameworks for C++. So, if there are some that you find interesting, we can choose among them.

Well i have been looking around and this is what i found.

• Catch2: Header only, easy to start but doe not support mock objects

• Google test: mocking out of the box and supports death tests. Is a little heavier though and needs to be embedded.

I would personally like to have a look at google test as this is also the one where I can find the most documentation.

By looking at the features it looks great, but maybe Catch2 is more immediate to use. Try Google test first if you like it, if it's easy to use and to integrate into the project we can continue with it. Il 14/Ott/2018 06:52 PM, "Thomas Pans" <[email protected]> ha scritto:

Just quick update after a few days of messing around.

I think catch2 will be the best choice here, it is really straight forward.

google test was just a pain to setup and integrate.

@mattiadg If you agree i will continue with catch2 as the testing framework

If it's easier, it's fine for me. When we have now experience we can move to more complex tools Il 17/Ott/2018 09:32 PM, "Thomas Pans" <[email protected]> ha scritto: Just quick update after a few days of messing around.
