Qt

[coder2020]

Hi,

I'm using Qt Creator 13.0.1, Qt5 and CMake 3.14.

I want to create unit tests with QTest on the "Calculatrice" class that I created.

I saw several Youtube videos and searched a lot on the internet but I couldn't find how to create a test.
It seems that the solutions I found apply to old versions of Qt but nothing on the new version, even the examples on the Qt site are not detailed on the different steps.

I tried two ways to create a test :
1- After creating my "Calculatrice" class, I created a new project "File>>New project>>Test Project>>Qt Test Project", but I did not find how to connect this new test project to my "Calculatrice" class in CMake or elsewhere.
2- After creating my "Calculatrice" class, I create a new subfolder in the same project and I create a CMake for the test.

Neither method worked

What is the correct method to create a test with QTest and what are all the steps to create a test??

Thks

Qt test suits are regular applications therefore you need to add a new executable target to your project, link it with Qt's test library and either implement the main function according to the docs, or use a QTEST_MAIN macro to generate a main function.

Create a test folder:
Create a subfolder called tests in the main project.
In this folder, create a separate CMake file for the test.
Create a CMakeLists.txt file for the test:
In the tests folder, create a CMakeLists.txt file with the following contents:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.14)
 
project(CalculatriceTests)
 
find_package(Qt5 REQUIRED COMPONENTS Test)
 
add_executable(test_calculatrice
    test_calculatrice.cpp
)
 
target_link_libraries(test_calculatrice Qt5::Test)

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.14)

project(CalculatriceTests)

find_package(Qt5 REQUIRED COMPONENTS Test)

add_executable(test_calculatrice
    test_calculatrice.cpp
)

target_link_libraries(test_calculatrice Qt5::Test)
