🧰 C Tool Box

Unit Tests

Various modules to bootstrap a C project.

Modules inspired by the document "Modular C: How to Write Reusable and Maintainable Code using the C Language" by Robert Strandh.

What's included

Module Abstract Data Type Implementation
vec Vector Dynamic Array
list List Doubly Linked List
slist Singly Linked List Singly Linked List
map Map Hash Table
oset Ordered Set Skip List
pqueue Priority Queue Heap
stack Stack Singly Linked List
queue Queue Doubly Linked List
set Set 📐 planned ✏️

Getting started

Prerequisites

In order for everything to function smoothly you need the following software installed:

  • valgrind
  • gcc
  • GNU Make

Installing

Clone the directory, cd into it, and run:

make setup

Running the tests

Birds eye view

From the root of the directory you have a birds eye view to quickly see that everything is working as expected.

Available recipes:

  • make setup is used to set up the directory for testing.
  • make tests is used to compile all the tests of the modules.
  • make run-tests is used to run all the tests.
  • make valgrind-tests is used to check for memory leaks on all the tests.
  • make clean is used to clean up all the generated files.

Independently test a module

From the tests/ directory you have a more fine-tuned control of each test.

# Change into the tests/ direcotry:
cd tests

Available general recipes:

  • make all is used to compile all the tests.
  • make run is used to execute all the tests.
  • make valgrind is used to check all the tests for memory leaks.
  • make clean is used to remove all the generated files.

Available test recipes:

  • make <test> is used to compile <test>.
  • make run-<test> is used to execute <test>.
  • make valgrind-<test> is used to check <test> for memory leaks.

Note: Replace <test> with the name of the desired test.

Using a module

In order to use a module, you need to copy three things:

  1. The interface file (.h) from include/ directory.
  2. The desired implementation (.c) from modules/ directory.
  3. Any dependencies of the module based on tests/Makefile.

Note: Check an example for further information.
