CppUTest

Test plugins let you add a preaction and a post action to each test case. Plugin examples:

• Memory leak detector (provided)
• Pointer restore mechanism (provided) - helpful when tests overwrite a pointer that must be restored to its original value after the test. This is especially helpful when a pointer to a function is modified for test purposes.
• All Mutex's released - you could write a plugin that checks that any Mutexs or other shared resource is released before the test exists.

Example of a main with a SetPointerPlugin:

int main(int ac, char** av)
{
    TestRegistry* r = TestRegistry::getCurrentRegistry();
    SetPointerPlugin ps("PointerStore");
    r->installPlugin(&ps);
    return CommandLineTestRunner::RunAllTests(ac, av);
}

      va_end(arguments);
