Basic testcoe Example

This example demonstrates the basic usage of testcoe to enhance your Google Test output with a visual grid display.

Files

• main.cpp - Main program that initializes testcoe and runs the tests
• math_tests.cpp - Test cases for mathematical operations
• string_tests.cpp - Test cases for string operations
• vector_tests.cpp - Test cases for vector operations

How to Build

# Build the example with CMake
mkdir -p build
cd build
cmake ..
cmake --build .

How to Run

# Run all tests
./basic_example

# Or use the CMake target
cmake --build . --target run_basic_example

Key Points

1. testcoe is initialized with testcoe::init(&argc, argv), replacing the usual Google Test initialization.
2. Tests are run with testcoe::run(), replacing the usual RUN_ALL_TESTS().
3. The grid visualization shows all test suites and their status in real-time.
4. An intentional failure is included to demonstrate how failures are displayed.

Expected Output

You should see a grid display showing the progress of all test suites (MathTest, StringTest, VectorTest) with color-coded status indicators:

• . - Not run yet
• R - Currently running
• P - Passed
• F - Failed

When all tests complete, a summary will show the total number of tests, passes, and failures.
