There is +also an IRC channel on OFTC (irc.oftc.net) #gtest available. Please +join us! + +Please note that code under [scripts/generator](scripts/generator/) is +from [cppclean](http://code.google.com/p/cppclean/) and released under +the Apache License, which is different from Google Mock's license. + +## Getting Started ## + +If you are new to the project, we suggest that you read the user +documentation in the following order: + + * Learn the [basics](../googletest/docs/Primer.md) of + Google Test, if you choose to use Google Mock with it (recommended). + * Read [Google Mock for Dummies](docs/ForDummies.md). + * Read the instructions below on how to build Google Mock. + +You can also watch Zhanyong's [talk](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYpCyLI47rM) on Google Mock's usage and implementation. + +Once you understand the basics, check out the rest of the docs: + + * [CheatSheet](docs/CheatSheet.md) - all the commonly used stuff + at a glance. + * [CookBook](docs/CookBook.md) - recipes for getting things done, + including advanced techniques. + +If you need help, please check the +[KnownIssues](docs/KnownIssues.md) and +[FrequentlyAskedQuestions](docs/FrequentlyAskedQuestions.md) before +posting a question on the +[discussion group](http://groups.google.com/group/googlemock). + + +### Using Google Mock Without Google Test ### + +Google Mock is not a testing framework itself. Instead, it needs a +testing framework for writing tests. Google Mock works seamlessly +with [Google Test](http://code.google.com/p/googletest/), but +you can also use it with [any C++ testing framework](googlemock/ForDummies.md#Using_Google_Mock_with_Any_Testing_Framework). + +### Requirements for End Users ### + +Google Mock is implemented on top of [Google Test]( +http://github.com/google/googletest/), and depends on it. +You must use the bundled version of Google Test when using Google Mock. + +You can also easily configure Google Mock to work with another testing +framework, although it will still need Google Test. Please read +["Using_Google_Mock_with_Any_Testing_Framework"]( + docs/ForDummies.md#Using_Google_Mock_with_Any_Testing_Framework) +for instructions. + +Google Mock depends on advanced C++ features and thus requires a more +modern compiler. The following are needed to use Google Mock: + +#### Linux Requirements #### + + * GNU-compatible Make or "gmake" + * POSIX-standard shell + * POSIX(-2) Regular Expressions (regex.h) + * C++98-standard-compliant compiler (e.g. GCC 3.4 or newer) + +#### Windows Requirements #### + + * Microsoft Visual C++ 8.0 SP1 or newer + +#### Mac OS X Requirements #### + + * Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger or newer + * Developer Tools Installed + +### Requirements for Contributors ### + +We welcome patches. If you plan to contribute a patch, you need to +build Google Mock and its tests, which has further requirements: + + * Automake version 1.9 or newer + * Autoconf version 2.59 or newer + * Libtool / Libtoolize + * Python version 2.3 or newer (for running some of the tests and + re-generating certain source files from templates) + +### Building Google Mock ### + +#### Preparing to Build (Unix only) #### + +If you are using a Unix system and plan to use the GNU Autotools build +system to build Google Mock (described below), you'll need to +configure it now. + +To prepare the Autotools build system: + + cd googlemock + autoreconf -fvi + +To build Google Mock and your tests that use it, you need to tell your +build system where to find its headers and source files. The exact +way to do it depends on which build system you use, and is usually +straightforward. + +This section shows how you can integrate Google Mock into your +existing build system. + +Suppose you put Google Mock in directory `${GMOCK_DIR}` and Google Test +in `${GTEST_DIR}` (the latter is `${GMOCK_DIR}/gtest` by default). To +build Google Mock, create a library build target (or a project as +called by Visual Studio and Xcode) to compile + + ${GTEST_DIR}/src/gtest-all.cc and ${GMOCK_DIR}/src/gmock-all.cc + +with + + ${GTEST_DIR}/include and ${GMOCK_DIR}/include + +in the system header search path, and + + ${GTEST_DIR} and ${GMOCK_DIR} + +in the normal header search path. Assuming a Linux-like system and gcc, +something like the following will do: + + g++ -isystem ${GTEST_DIR}/include -I${GTEST_DIR} \ + -isystem ${GMOCK_DIR}/include -I${GMOCK_DIR} \ + -pthread -c ${GTEST_DIR}/src/gtest-all.cc + g++ -isystem ${GTEST_DIR}/include -I${GTEST_DIR} \ + -isystem ${GMOCK_DIR}/include -I${GMOCK_DIR} \ + -pthread -c ${GMOCK_DIR}/src/gmock-all.cc + ar -rv libgmock.a gtest-all.o gmock-all.o + +(We need -pthread as Google Test and Google Mock use threads.) + +Next, you should compile your test source file with +${GTEST\_DIR}/include and ${GMOCK\_DIR}/include in the header search +path, and link it with gmock and any other necessary libraries: + + g++ -isystem ${GTEST_DIR}/include -isystem ${GMOCK_DIR}/include \ + -pthread path/to/your_test.cc libgmock.a -o your_test + +As an example, the make/ directory contains a Makefile that you can +use to build Google Mock on systems where GNU make is available +(e.g. Linux, Mac OS X, and Cygwin). It doesn't try to build Google +Mock's own tests. Instead, it just builds the Google Mock library and +a sample test. You can use it as a starting point for your own build +script. + +If the default settings are correct for your environment, the +following commands should succeed: + + cd ${GMOCK_DIR}/make + make + ./gmock_test + +If you see errors, try to tweak the contents of +[make/Makefile](make/Makefile) to make them go away. + +### Windows ### + +The msvc/2005 directory contains VC++ 2005 projects and the msvc/2010 +directory contains VC++ 2010 projects for building Google Mock and +selected tests. + +Change to the appropriate directory and run "msbuild gmock.sln" to +build the library and tests (or open the gmock.sln in the MSVC IDE). +If you want to create your own project to use with Google Mock, you'll +have to configure it to use the `gmock_config` propety sheet. For that: + + * Open the Property Manager window (View | Other Windows | Property Manager) + * Right-click on your project and select "Add Existing Property Sheet..." + * Navigate to `gmock_config.vsprops` or `gmock_config.props` and select it. + * In Project Properties | Configuration Properties | General | Additional + Include Directories, type <path to Google Mock>/include. + +### Tweaking Google Mock ### + +Google Mock can be used in diverse environments. The default +configuration may not work (or may not work well) out of the box in +some environments. However, you can easily tweak Google Mock by +defining control macros on the compiler command line. Generally, +these macros are named like `GTEST_XYZ` and you define them to either 1 +or 0 to enable or disable a certain feature. + +We list the most frequently used macros below. For a complete list, +see file [${GTEST\_DIR}/include/gtest/internal/gtest-port.h]( +../googletest/include/gtest/internal/gtest-port.h). + +### Choosing a TR1 Tuple Library ### + +Google Mock uses the C++ Technical Report 1 (TR1) tuple library +heavily. Unfortunately TR1 tuple is not yet widely available with all +compilers. The good news is that Google Test 1.4.0+ implements a +subset of TR1 tuple that's enough for Google Mock's need. Google Mock +will automatically use that implementation when the compiler doesn't +provide TR1 tuple. + +Usually you don't need to care about which tuple library Google Test +and Google Mock use. However, if your project already uses TR1 tuple, +you need to tell Google Test and Google Mock to use the same TR1 tuple +library the rest of your project uses, or the two tuple +implementations will clash. To do that, add + + -DGTEST_USE_OWN_TR1_TUPLE=0 + +to the compiler flags while compiling Google Test, Google Mock, and +your tests. If you want to force Google Test and Google Mock to use +their own tuple library, just add + + -DGTEST_USE_OWN_TR1_TUPLE=1 + +to the compiler flags instead. + +If you want to use Boost's TR1 tuple library with Google Mock, please +refer to the Boost website (http://www.boost.org/) for how to obtain +it and set it up. + +### As a Shared Library (DLL) ### + +Google Mock is compact, so most users can build and link it as a static +library for the simplicity. Google Mock can be used as a DLL, but the +same DLL must contain Google Test as well. See +[Google Test's README][gtest_readme] +for instructions on how to set up necessary compiler settings. + +### Tweaking Google Mock ### + +Most of Google Test's control macros apply to Google Mock as well. +Please see [Google Test's README][gtest_readme] for how to tweak them. + +### Upgrading from an Earlier Version ### + +We strive to keep Google Mock releases backward compatible. +Sometimes, though, we have to make some breaking changes for the +users' long-term benefits. This section describes what you'll need to +do if you are upgrading from an earlier version of Google Mock. + +#### Upgrading from 1.1.0 or Earlier #### + +You may need to explicitly enable or disable Google Test's own TR1 +tuple library. See the instructions in section "[Choosing a TR1 Tuple +Library](../googletest/#choosing-a-tr1-tuple-library)". + +#### Upgrading from 1.4.0 or Earlier #### + +On platforms where the pthread library is available, Google Test and +Google Mock use it in order to be thread-safe. For this to work, you +may need to tweak your compiler and/or linker flags. Please see the +"[Multi-threaded Tests](../googletest#multi-threaded-tests +)" section in file Google Test's README for what you may need to do. + +If you have custom matchers defined using `MatcherInterface` or +`MakePolymorphicMatcher()`, you'll need to update their definitions to +use the new matcher API ( +[monomorphic](http://code.google.com/p/googlemock/wiki/CookBook#Writing_New_Monomorphic_Matchers), +[polymorphic](http://code.google.com/p/googlemock/wiki/CookBook#Writing_New_Polymorphic_Matchers)). +Matchers defined using `MATCHER()` or `MATCHER_P*()` aren't affected. + +### Developing Google Mock ### + +This section discusses how to make your own changes to Google Mock. + +#### Testing Google Mock Itself #### + +To make sure your changes work as intended and don't break existing +functionality, you'll want to compile and run Google Test's own tests. +For that you'll need Autotools. First, make sure you have followed +the instructions above to configure Google Mock. +Then, create a build output directory and enter it. Next, + + ${GMOCK_DIR}/configure # try --help for more info + +Once you have successfully configured Google Mock, the build steps are +standard for GNU-style OSS packages. + + make # Standard makefile following GNU conventions + make check # Builds and runs all tests - all should pass. + +Note that when building your project against Google Mock, you are building +against Google Test as well. There is no need to configure Google Test +separately. + +#### Contributing a Patch #### + +We welcome patches. +Please read the [Developer's Guide](docs/DevGuide.md) +for how you can contribute. In particular, make sure you have signed +the Contributor License Agreement, or we won't be able to accept the +patch. + +Happy testing! + +[gtest_readme]: ../googletest/README.md "googletest" |
