Unit Tests
The objective of unit tests is to test the functionality of a single module isolated from the system and other functional units.
- Test functionality of single software unit or module
- May require dependencies of other modules that come before in the compilation order
- Shouldn't require to run ACS or depend on functional units / modules that come later in the compilation order
There are frameworks for the different programming languages and shell scripting. ACS comes with:
- shunit: Shell (sh, bash, etc.) unit testing framework
- unittest: Official Python unit testing module
- jUnit: Java unit testing library
- cppunit: C++ unit testing library
Besides these, each project is free to include their own unit testing libraries, packages, frameworks, etc.
