Hi all,
I have successfully used Python to perform unit and integration tests
in the past and I'd like to do the same for some C modules I'm working
with at work. There seem to be a number of ways of doing this but
being busy at work and home I looking for the approach with the least
learning curve.
I don't want to add the C modules into the CPython build itself as
I've never done this and at work it's a real pain getting admin rights
to do this, and when you do it lasts just 24 hours. The C modules are
likely to change frequently as bugs are found and features added.
The other option I'm considering is to use sockets and write a C
wrapper round the C modules I want to test. This has the advantage for
me that I know about sockets from Python & C points of view and I get
complete control of the C compile process. This may be important as
the C modules come from an embedded project and I don't want to change
them in any way.
Are there any other approachs to this problem?
I'll be using Python 3.5 (work) and 3.6 (home).
Feedback appriciated.
Install Oracle's "Virtual Box" software on your computer. It's free.
Then install a version of Linux on it (or something else, if you
prefer). Whatever you do, if you don't like it, you can replace your
installation in a matter of minutes.
