They are split into Public and Private +test suites reflecting the public and internal API functions of civetweb. + +When adding new functionality to civetweb tests should be written so that the +new functionality will be tested across the continuous build servers. There +are various levels of the unit tests: + + * Tests are included in + * Test Cases which are there are multiple in + * Test Suites which are ran by the check framework by + * `civetweb-unit-tests` which is driven using the `--suite` and + `--test-case` arguments by + * CTest via `add_test` in `CMakeLists.txt` + +Each test suite and test case is ran individually by CTest so that it provides +good feedback to the continuous integration servers and also CMake. Adding a +new test case or suite will require the corresponding `add_test` driver to be +added to `CMakeLists.txt` |
