Unit Testing
============
.. versionadded:: 3.0 (`PlatformIO Plus <https://pioplus.com>`_)
`Unit Testing (wiki) <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_testing>`_
is a software testing method by which individual units of source code, sets
of one or more MCU program modules together with associated control data,
usage procedures, and operating procedures, are tested to determine whether
they are fit for use. Unit testing finds problems early in the development cycle.
|PIOUTE| supports 2 different test types:
1. **Desktop Test**. PlatformIO wraps test and main program (from
:ref:`projectconf_pio_src_dir`) with own |PIOUTF|, builds final program
using :ref:`platform_native` and run test on a local host machine (desktop).
.. note::
PlatformIO does not install any toolchains automatically for
:ref:`platform_native` and requires ``GCC`` toolchain to be installed
on your local machine.
Please open Terminal and check that ``gcc`` command is installed.
2. **Embedded Test**. PlatformIO wraps test and main firmware (from
:ref:`projectconf_pio_src_dir`) with own |PIOUTF|, builds special firmware
for a target device and upload it. After uploading, PlatformIO connects
to embedded device (board) using :ref:`projectconf_test_port` , starts
test, collects results and shows test results on the local host machine.
Currently, |PIOUTE| supports these frameworks:
* :ref:`framework_arduino`
* :ref:`framework_energia`
* :ref:`framework_mbed`.
.. note::
Please note that |PIOUTF| uses Serial/UART as communication interface
between PlatformIO Unit Test Engine and target device. If you use
``Serial`` in your project, please wrap/hide Serial-based blocks with
``#ifndef UNIT_TEST`` macro.
There are 2 options how to run tests:
1. **Local**. Allows to run tests on local host machine or on the target devices
(boards) that are directly connected to this machine. In this case, need to
use :ref:`cmd_test` command.
2. **Remote**. Allows to run tests on remote machine or remote target device
(board) without any dependencies to OS software, extra software, SSH, VPN
or opening network ports. Remote Unit Testing works in pair with
:ref:`pio_remote`. In this case, need to use special command
:ref:`cmd_remote_test`.
PlatformIO supports multiple :ref:`ci` systems that can run project
unit tests automatically.
Both commands allow to process specific environments or to ignore some tests
using "Glob patterns". Also, you will be able to ignore some tests for
specific environment using :ref:`projectconf_test_ignore` option
from :ref:`projectconf`.

.. _unit_testing_design:
Design
------
|PIOUTE| design is based on a few isolated components:
1. **Main Program**. Contains the independent modules, procedures,
functions or methods that will be the target candidates (TC) for testing.
2. **Unit Test**. This a small independent program that is intended to
re-use TC from the main program and apply tests for them.
3. **Test Processor**. The set of approaches and tools that will be used
to apply test for the environments from :ref:`projectconf`.
Workflow
--------
1. Create PlatformIO project using :ref:`cmd_init` command. For Local Unit
Testing (on the host machine), need to use :ref:`platform_native`.
.. code-block:: ini
; PlatformIO Project Configuration File
;
; Build options: build flags, source filter, extra scripting
; Upload options: custom port, speed and extra flags
; Library options: dependencies, extra library storages
;
; Please visit documentation for the other options and examples
; http://docs.platformio.org/en/stable/projectconf.html
;
; Embedded platforms
;
[env:uno]
platform = atmelavr
framework = arduino
board = uno
[env:nodemcu]
platform = espressif8266
framework = arduino
board = nodemcuv2
;
; Local (PC, native) platforms
;
[env:local]
platform = native
2. Place source code of main program to ``src`` directory.
3. Wrap ``main()`` or ``setup()/loop()`` methods of main program in ``UNIT_TEST``
guard:
.. code-block:: c
/**
* Arduino Wiring-based Framework
*/
#ifndef UNIT_TEST
#include <Arduino.h>
void setup () {
// some code...
}
void loop () {
// some code...
}
#endif
.. code-block:: c
/**
* Generic C/C++
*/
#ifndef UNIT_TEST
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
// setup code...
while (1) {
// loop code...
}
return 0
}
#endif
4. Create ``test`` directory in the root of project. See :ref:`projectconf_pio_test_dir`.
5. Write test using :ref:`unit_testing_api`. The each test is a small
independent program with own ``main()`` or ``setup()/loop()`` methods. Also,
test should start from ``UNITY_BEGIN()`` and finish with ``UNITY_END()``.
6. Place test to ``test`` directory. If you have more than one test, split them
into sub-folders. For example, ``test/test_1/*.[c,cpp,h]``,
``test_N/*.[c,cpp,h]``, etc. If no such directory in ``test`` folder, then
|PIOUTE| will treat the source code of ``test`` folder
as SINGLE test.
7. Run tests using :ref:`cmd_test` command.

Test "Blink" Project
--------------------
1. Please follow to :ref:`quickstart` and create "Blink Project". According
to the Unit Testing :ref:`unit_testing_design` it is the **Main program**.
2. Create ``test`` directory in that project (on the same level as ``src``)
and place ``test_main.cpp`` file to it (the source code is located below).
3. Wrap ``setup()`` and ``loop()`` methods of main program in ``UNIT_TEST``
guard.
4. Run tests using :ref:`cmd_test` command.
