I'm trying to add unit tests to a project of mine for the first time.
I can run mock tests alright (without using my project's classes) and run the application alright. But if I instantiate objects from the project I get an unresolved external symbol of the QMetaObject. If I recall correctly, this means the moc of the object isn't being included on the project.
How do I fix this? I have the same issue using googletests. The guide also doesn't help on this. I've tried installing the qt unit testing plugin, same result.
I've uploaded a mock project that follows the same structure that I'm using in the aforementioned project, fetch it here: https://github.com/quimnuss/QtUnitTestingTest
I'm using a static build of qt on windows, but I guess that's irrellevant. Using QtCreator as IDE and NMAke build.
I've also tried add the HelloWorld.lib, but taking a look at the Makefile.release it isn't used.
Somebody has an idea of what I'm doing wrong?
Here's the unit testing .pro:
QT += widgets network testlib
TARGET = tst_someunittesttest
CONFIG += console
CONFIG -= app_bundle
TEMPLATE = app
INCLUDEPATH += $$PWD/../HelloWorld
include($$PWD/../HelloWorld/helloworldCommon.pri)
LIBS += -L"$$OUT_PWD/../HelloWorld/release"
LIBS += -lHelloWorld
message("Searching libs here $$LIBS")
SOURCES += tst_someunittesttest.cpp
DEFINES += SRCDIR=\\\"$$PWD/\\\"
QT += widgets network testlib
TARGET = tst_someunittesttest
CONFIG += console
CONFIG -= app_bundle
TEMPLATE = app
INCLUDEPATH += $$PWD/../HelloWorld
include($$PWD/../HelloWorld/helloworldCommon.pri)
LIBS += -L"$$OUT_PWD/../HelloWorld/release"
LIBS += -lHelloWorld
message("Searching libs here $$LIBS")
SOURCES += tst_someunittesttest.cpp
DEFINES += SRCDIR=\\\"$$PWD/\\\"
