Re: c++ unit test in content process
I see. I'll try to write with a more end-to-end test framework then. Thank you.

Therefore I am thinking of writing a similar one with gtest but run in content process. Does the unit of code you're testing include two processes communicating via IPDL? If so, I think you're going to need something more than a C++ unit test, and should probably focus your efforts on a more end-to-end integration test. Setting up IPDL connections and all of the machinery that goes with that doesn't sounds like something we should be trying in low-level unit tests. --BDS ___ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature ___ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
c++ unit test in content process
Hi, I am trying to write a C++ unit test for code that runs in child process, but all c++ tests I found run in parent process. Is it possible to write a c++ test case that runs in child process, or is there any example in our code?

We have the following possible harnesses: gtest - typically these tests are low-level C++ tests and often don't initialize XPCOM at all. Certainly they don't have the concept of chrome/content processes. xpcshell - typically test the API surface of a component written in JS or C++ Neither of these particularly care about chrome/content: if you're actually testing a C++ component and not doing integration testing, is it possible that you don't need to care? --BDS smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature ___ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
