C++ Libraries facilitating debugging (incl. logging and memory leak detection) and testing.

Resources in This Category

• amop

  https://code.google.com/p/amop/
  An automatic mock object for C++. By using ABI and template techniques, it can simulate a pseudo-"Reflection" which is normally not supported in C++. The main differences between AMOP and other mock object libraries is that users do not need to implement the interface of the object to be mocked. [Open Source, MIT]

• Compile-Time Assertions & Debugging

  http://www.drdobbs.com/compile-time-assertions-debugging/184402051
  It's common practice to use assertions to check invariants at runtime, but assertions can be equally useful at compile time for doing things like checking arrays for proper size and order.

• CppUnit

  http://sourceforge.net/projects/cppunit/
  A C++ unit testing framework that started as a port of JUnit to C++.

• CxxTest

  http://cxxtest.tigris.org/
  A JUnit/CppUnit/xUnit-like framework for C/C++ with a focus on being a lightweight framework that is well suited for integration into embedded systems development projects. [Open Source, LGPL]

• LeakTracer

  http://www.andreasen.org/LeakTracer/
  Library for tracing and analyzing memory leaks in C++ programs. [Public Domain]

• Libcwd

  http://libcwd.sourceforge.net/
  A thread-safe library to support C++ developers with debugging their applications. It includes support for ostream-based debug output to custom debug channels, memory allocation debugging and run-time support like printing source file locations and demangled names of template parameters.

• mockpp

  http://mockpp.sourceforge.net/index-en.html
  Mock Objects for C++, a platform independent generic unit testing framework for C++. Its goal is to facilitate developing unit tests in the spirit of Mock Objects for Java, EasyMock and jMock.

• ModAssert

  http://modassert.sourceforge.net/
  An advanced assertion framework for C++ that provides additional logging when an assertion fails. [Open Source]

• mpatrol

  http://mpatrol.sourceforge.net/
  A powerful debugging tool that attempts to diagnose run-time errors that are caused by the wrong use of dynamically allocated memory. [Open Source, LGPL]

• TUT

  http://tut-framework.sourceforge.net/
  A small and portable unit test framework for C++. [Open Source]

• unit++

  http://unitpp.sourceforge.net/
  A C++ unit testing framework similar to junit. [Open Source, LGPL]
