A unit testing framework for C
There are a variety of C unit testing frameworks available, but CMocka offers support for mock objects, different platforms and compilers.
Motivation
The idea of CMocka is that a test application only requires the standard C library and the CMocka library itself to minimize conflicts with standard C headers especially on a lot of different platforms.
Currently CMocka is tested on Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris and Windows. See the Testing Dashboard.
CMocka is a fork of Google's cmockery.
Features
- An easy to use framework to write unit tests.
- Support for mock objects!
- Well documented library
- Testing of memory leaks, buffer overflows and underflows.
- Platform and compiler independent.
- Apache License 2.0
