Description

This class is a collection of attributes describing a test result.

The attributes presented as public properties on an instance of the class. In addition summary conclusion methods are presented to generate simple answer to pass/fail question

test_results public construct/copy/destruct

  1. test_results();

test_results public member functions

  1. typedef BOOST_READONLY_PROPERTY(counter_t, 
                                    (results_collector_t)(test_results)(results_collect_helper));
    Type representing counter like public property.
  2. typedef BOOST_READONLY_PROPERTY(bool, 
                                    (results_collector_t)(test_results)(results_collect_helper));
    Type representing boolean like public property.
  3. bool passed() const;
    Returns true if test unit passed.
  4. int result_code() const;
    Produces result code for the test unit execution.

    This methhod return one of the result codes defined in boost/cstdlib.hpp

    Returns:

    • boost::exit_success on success,

    • boost::exit_exception_failure in case test unit was aborted for any reason (incuding uncaught exception)

    • and boost::exit_test_failure otherwise

  5. void operator+=(test_results const &);
    Combines the results of the current instance with another.

    Only the counters are updated and the p_aborted and p_skipped are left unchanged.

  6. void clear();
    Resets the current state of the result.
