Bug#606373: ITP: cxxtest -- a xUnit-like framework for C/C++

[Cleto Martin Angelina <cleto.martin@gmail.com>]

Thanks Roger for your comments. I have changed the description to this:

CxxTest is a lightweight xUnit-like testing framework for C/C++ applications. It provides several assertion structures for checking conditions and useful classes for building unit-test cases.


.
Writing test  is easier and simpler than others C/C++ testing frameworks like CppUnit because it is not required to register them. Once the test case is written, it should be translated to the standalone C++ code by using a provided translator. Then, the code will be compiled to run the test case.

.
CxxTest is integrated via-plugin in Eclipse framework  and in atheist testing framework.


----

I have changed the CxxTest upstream release for Debian distribution. Upstream author releases CxxTest as "code to be included" in the test cases. So, every test case includes entery library (including .cpp files) and, once it is translated to final C++ code, it is compiled. I have created a dynamic (and static) library with that common code, so the test case just should be linked with it.

I don't think  this issue should be at description. Is it ok?

Cheers,
 Cleto.
