C/C++ Test Driven Development boilerplate

Ready to go boilerplate for doing TDD for C/C++ and SCons as build system.

Boilerplate for C/C++ development using TDD and SCons.

Uses GoogleTest for unit testing and to create mocks.

Has already a sample module called func1 with some unit tests and mocks to ease the use of the boilerplate.

Sample usage

To test that your setup is ready, run the following commands. If not, go to Requirements.

git clone --recursive https://github.com/jorgeacortes/c-tdd-boilerplate
scons # Builds the app and tests

Build.py is a file included in order to manage usual builds. VS Code configuration and tasks are provided for compiling and debugging. Dockerfile is also provided to compile over a linux container.
