:prop_test:`FIXTURES_CLEANUP` property. If any of a fixture's setup tests fail, |
all tests listing that fixture in their ``FIXTURES_REQUIRED`` property will not |
be executed. The cleanup tests for the fixture will always be executed, even if |
some setup tests fail. |
When CTest is asked to execute only a subset of tests (e.g. by the use of |
regular expressions or when run with the :option:`--rerun-failed <ctest --rerun-failed>` |
command line option), it will automatically add any setup or cleanup tests for |
fixtures required by any of the tests that are in the execution set. This |
behavior can be overridden with the :option:`-FS <ctest -FS>`, |
:option:`-FC <ctest -FC>` and :option:`-FA <ctest -FA>` command line options to |
:manual:`ctest(1)` if desired. |
Since setup and cleanup tasks are also tests, they can have an ordering |
specified by the :prop_test:`DEPENDS` test property just like any other tests. |
This can be exploited to implement setup or cleanup using multiple tests for a |
single fixture to modularise setup or cleanup logic. |
The concept of a fixture is different to that of a resource specified by |
:prop_test:`RESOURCE_LOCK`, but they may be used together. A fixture defines a |
set of tests which share setup and cleanup requirements, whereas a resource |
lock has the effect of ensuring a particular set of tests do not run in |
parallel. Some situations may need both, such as setting up a database, |
serializing test access to that database and deleting the database again at the |
end. For such cases, tests would populate both ``FIXTURES_REQUIRED`` and |
:prop_test:`RESOURCE_LOCK` to combine the two behaviors. Names used for |
:prop_test:`RESOURCE_LOCK` have no relationship with names of fixtures, so note |
that a resource lock does not imply a fixture and vice versa. |
Consider the following example which represents a database test scenario |
similar to that mentioned above: |
.. code-block:: cmake |
add_test(NAME testsDone COMMAND emailResults) |
add_test(NAME fooOnly COMMAND testFoo) |
add_test(NAME dbOnly COMMAND testDb) |
add_test(NAME dbWithFoo COMMAND testDbWithFoo) |
add_test(NAME createDB COMMAND initDB) |
add_test(NAME setupUsers COMMAND userCreation) |
add_test(NAME cleanupDB COMMAND deleteDB) |
add_test(NAME cleanupFoo COMMAND removeFoos) |
set_tests_properties(setupUsers PROPERTIES DEPENDS createDB) |
set_tests_properties(createDB PROPERTIES FIXTURES_SETUP DB) |
set_tests_properties(setupUsers PROPERTIES FIXTURES_SETUP DB) |
set_tests_properties(cleanupDB PROPERTIES FIXTURES_CLEANUP DB) |
set_tests_properties(cleanupFoo PROPERTIES FIXTURES_CLEANUP Foo) |
set_tests_properties(testsDone PROPERTIES FIXTURES_CLEANUP "DB;Foo") |
set_tests_properties(fooOnly PROPERTIES FIXTURES_REQUIRED Foo) |
set_tests_properties(dbOnly PROPERTIES FIXTURES_REQUIRED DB) |
set_tests_properties(dbWithFoo PROPERTIES FIXTURES_REQUIRED "DB;Foo") |
set_tests_properties(dbOnly dbWithFoo createDB setupUsers cleanupDB |
PROPERTIES RESOURCE_LOCK DbAccess) |
Key points from this example: |
- Two fixtures are defined: ``DB`` and ``Foo``. Tests can require a single |
fixture as ``fooOnly`` and ``dbOnly`` do, or they can depend on multiple |
fixtures like ``dbWithFoo`` does. |
- A ``DEPENDS`` relationship is set up to ensure ``setupUsers`` happens after |
``createDB``, both of which are setup tests for the ``DB`` fixture and will |
therefore be executed before the ``dbOnly`` and ``dbWithFoo`` tests |
automatically. |
- No explicit ``DEPENDS`` relationships were needed to make the setup tests run |
before or the cleanup tests run after the regular tests. |
- The ``Foo`` fixture has no setup tests defined, only a single cleanup test. |
- ``testsDone`` is a cleanup test for both the ``DB`` and ``Foo`` fixtures. |
Therefore, it will only execute once regular tests for both fixtures have |
finished (i.e. after ``fooOnly``, ``dbOnly`` and ``dbWithFoo``). No |
``DEPENDS`` relationship was specified for ``testsDone``, so it is free to |
run before, after or concurrently with other cleanup tests for either |
fixture. |
- The setup and cleanup tests never list the fixtures they are for in their own |
``FIXTURES_REQUIRED`` property, as that would result in a dependency on |
themselves and be considered an error. |
FIXTURES_SETUP |
-------------- |
.. versionadded:: 3.7 |
Specifies a list of fixtures for which the test is to be treated as a setup |
test. These fixture names are distinct from test case names and are not |
required to have any similarity to the names of tests associated with them. |
Fixture setup tests are ordinary tests with all of the usual test |
functionality. Setting the ``FIXTURES_SETUP`` property for a test has two |
primary effects: |
- CTest will ensure the test executes before any other test which lists the |
fixture name(s) in its :prop_test:`FIXTURES_REQUIRED` property. |
