<a name="Motivation"><h2>Motivation</h2></a>
<p>There are a variety of C unit testing frameworks available however many of
them are fairly complex and require the latest compiler technology. Some
development requires the use of old compilers which makes it difficult to
use some unit testing frameworks. In addition many unit testing frameworks
assume the code being tested is an application or module that is targeted to
the same platform that will ultimately execute the test. Because of this
assumption many frameworks require the inclusion of standard C library headers
in the code module being tested which may collide with the custom or
incomplete implementation of the C library utilized by the code under test.</p>
<p>cmocka only requires a test application is linked with the standard C
library which minimizes conflicts with standard C library headers. Also,
cmocka tries avoid the use of some of the newer features of C compilers.</p>
<p>This results in cmocka being a relatively small library that can be used
to test a variety of exotic code. If a developer wishes to simply test an
application with the latest compiler then other unit testing frameworks maybe
preferable.</p>
<a name="Overview"><h2>Overview</h2></a>
<p>cmocka tests are compiled into stand-alone executables and linked with
the cmocka library, the standard C library and module being tested. Any
symbols external to the module being tested should be mocked - replaced with
functions that return values determined by the test - within the test
application. Even though significant differences may exist between the target
execution environment of a code module and the environment used to test the
code the unit testing is still valid since its goal is to test the logic of a
code modules at a functional level and not necessarily all of its interactions
with the target execution environment.</p>
<p>It may not be possible to compile a module into a test application without
some modification, therefore the preprocessor symbol <b>UNIT_TESTING</b> should
be defined when cmocka unit test applications are compiled so code within the
module can be conditionally compiled for tests.</p>
<a name="Test_Execution"><h2>Test Execution</h2></a>
<p>cmocka unit test cases are functions with the signature
<b>void function(void **state)</b>. cmocka test applications initialize a
table with test case function pointers using <b>unit_test*()</b> macros. This
table is then passed to the <b>run_tests()</b> macro to execute the tests.
<b>run_tests()</b> sets up the appropriate exception / signal handlers and
other data structures prior to running each test function. When a unit test
is complete <b>run_tests()</b> performs various checks to determine whether
the test succeeded.</p>
<h4>Using run_tests()</h4>
<a href="../example/run_tests.c">run_tests.c</a>
<listing>
#include &lt;stdarg.h&gt;
#include &lt;stddef.h&gt;
#include &lt;setjmp.h&gt;
#include &lt;cmocka.h&gt;
// A test case that does nothing and succeeds.
void null_test_success(void **state) {
}
int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
const UnitTest tests[] = {
unit_test(null_test_success),
};
return run_tests(tests);
}
</listing>
<a name="Exception_Handling"><h2>Exception Handling</h2></a>
<p>Before a test function is executed by <b>run_tests()</b>,
exception / signal handlers are overridden with a handler that simply
displays an error and exits a test function if an exception occurs. If an
exception occurs outside of a test function, for example in cmocka itself,
the application aborts execution and returns an error code.</p>
<a name="Failure_Conditions"><h2>Failure Conditions</h2></a>
<p>If a failure occurs during a test function that's executed via
<b>run_tests()</b>, the test function is aborted and the application's
execution resumes with the next test function.
Test failures are ultimately signalled via the cmocka function <b>fail()</b>.
The following events will result in the cmocka library signalling a test
failure...
<ul>
<li><a href="#Assertions">Assertions</a></li>
<li><a href="#Exception_Handling">Exceptions</a></li>
<li><a href="#Dynamic_Memory_Allocation">Memory leaks</a></li>
<li><a href="#Test_State">Mismatched setup and tear down functions</a></li>
<li><a href="#Return_Values">Missing mock return values</a></li>
<li><a href="#Return_Values">Unused mock return values</a></li>
<li><a href="#Checking_Parameters">Missing expected parameter values</a></li>
<li><a href="#Checking_Parameters">Unused expected parameter values</a></li>
</ul>
</p>
<a name="Assertions"><h2>Assertions</h2></a>
<p>Runtime assert macros like the standard C library's <b>assert()</b> should
be redefined in modules being tested to use cmocka's <b>mock_assert()</b>
function. Normally <b>mock_assert()</b> signals a
<a href="#Failure_Conditions">test failure</a>. If a function is called using
the <b>expect_assert_failure()</b> macro, any calls to <b>mock_assert()</b>
within the function will result in the execution of the test. If no
calls to <b>mock_assert()</b> occur during the function called via
<b>expect_assert_failure()</b> a test failure is signalled.</p>

<h3><a name="Assert_Macros">Assert Macros</a></h3>
<p>cmocka provides an assortment of assert macros that tests applications
should use use in preference to the C standard library's assert macro. On an
assertion failure a cmocka assert macro will write the failure to the
standard error stream and signal a test failure. Due to limitations of the
C language the general C standard library assert() and cmocka's
assert_true() and assert_false() macros can only display the expression that
caused the assert failure. cmocka's type specific assert macros,
assert_{type}_equal() and assert_{type}_not_equal(), display the data that
caused the assertion failure which increases data visibility aiding
debugging of failing test cases.</p>
<h4>Using assert_{type}_equal() macros</h4>

return i;
}

}
</listing>
<a name="Dynamic_Memory_Allocation"><h2>Dynamic Memory Allocation</h2></a>
<p>To test for memory leaks, buffer overflows and underflows a module being
tested by cmocka should replace calls to <b>malloc()</b>, <b>calloc()</b> and
<b>free()</b> to <b>test_malloc()</b>, <b>test_calloc()</b> and
<b>test_free()</b> respectively. Each time a block is deallocated using
<b>test_free()</b> it is checked for corruption, if a corrupt block is found
a <a href="#Failure_Conditions">test failure</a> is signalled. All blocks
allocated using the <b>test_*()</b> allocation functions are tracked by the
cmocka library. When a test completes if any allocated blocks (memory leaks)
remain they are reported and a test failure is signalled.</p>
<p>For simplicity cmocka currently executes all tests in one process.
Therefore all test cases in a test application share a single address space
which means memory corruption from a single test case could potentially cause
the test application to exit prematurely.</p>

<a name="Mock_Functions"><h2>Mock Functions</h2></a>
<p>A unit test should ideally isolate the function or module being tested
from any external dependencies. This can be performed using mock functions
that are either statically or dynamically linked with the module being tested.
Mock functions must be statically linked when the code being tested directly
references external functions. Dynamic linking is simply the process of
setting a function pointer in a table used by the tested module to reference
a mock function defined in the unit test.</p>
<a name="Return_Values"><h3>Return Values</h3></a>
<p>In order to simplify the implementation of mock functions cmocka provides
functionality which stores return values for mock functions in each test
case using <b>will_return()</b>. These values are then returned by each mock
function using calls to <b>mock()</b>.
Values passed to <b>will_return()</b> are added to a queue for each function
specified. Each successive call to <b>mock()</b> from a function removes a
return value from the queue. This makes it possible for a mock function to use
multiple calls to <b>mock()</b> to return output parameters in addition to a
return value. In addition this allows the specification of return values for
multiple calls to a mock function.</p>

<a name="Checking_Parameters"><h3>Checking Parameters</h3></a>
<p>In addition to storing the return values of mock functions, cmocka
provides functionality to store expected values for mock function parameters
using the expect_*() functions provided. A mock function parameter can then
be validated using the check_expected() macro.
<p>Successive calls to expect_*() macros for a parameter queues values to
check the specified parameter. check_expected() checks a function parameter
against the next value queued using expect_*(), if the parameter check fails a
test failure is signalled. In addition if check_expected() is called and
no more parameter values are queued a test failure occurs.</p>

<p>cmocka allows the specification of multiple setup and tear down functions
for each test case. Setup functions, specified by the <b>unit_test_setup()</b>
or <b>unit_test_setup_teardown()</b> macros allow common initialization to be
shared between multiple test cases. In addition, tear down functions,
