Docker image used for automatic testing of the C++ track's exercises.
This test runner, much like the ones for other tracks, must respect the specified interface.
Since the test runners are deployed as Docker images the related specification must be respected for the Dockerfile.
To run tests:
- Open project's root in terminal
- Run
./test.sh
This will compile and run tests for all exercises in the tests folder, it will fail if the output file result.json is different from the expected one for the exercise.
If you want to run specific tests:
- Open project's root in terminal
- Run
./test.sh <EXERCISE_SLUG_1> <EXERCISE_SLUG_2>
In both cases you can show more informations, like Docker output, by using the flag -v or --verbose.
On the C++ track we use CMake for building the exercises and Catch as its test framework.
Catch can report the tests results in JUnit formatted xml when enabled, we do so during the config step in run.sh by running the built executable with certain flags, when this is done a file output.xml is generated during build time.
This file is parsed with Python and the junitparser library in the process.py script that outputs a results.json file that respects the test runners specifications.
