Comment (by pulkomandy):
There are some pages about it on the website:
https://www.haiku-os.org/documents/dev/unit_testing/ ;(deprecated, from
before we were using Jam and SVN!)
https://www.haiku-os.org/documents/dev/unit_testing_part_deux
https://www.haiku-os.org/documents/dev/template_madness_unit_test_policy/
https://www.haiku-
os.org/blog/yourpalal/2010-06-18_unit_testing_fun_and_profit/ (up to date
on writing tests, but not much info on running them)
Usually I run them from Haiku like this:
{{{
jam -q unittests
UnitTester
}}}
It is currently not possible to run the tests on a non-Haiku host. It is
possible to build them, and our builbots do so (this at least make sure
they compile).
The UnitTester harness is the tool you will use to run the tests. It
allows to run all of them, a specific one, or a group of tests. Not all
the tests in src/test use the harness however, some are just simple manual
test applications.
