| 1 | +There already are many good resources which explains why you shouldn't test private parts of your implementation and how to avoid it. |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +If you want to make make your classes friend with their test, here are some ways to achieve it: |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +* <font size="1">Add `#define private public` & `#define protected public` before including production headers to your test sources. But I never said this.</font> |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +* You can declare your test with an existing class instead of a string : |
| 8 | +`GTEST(SomeClass) { ... }` |
| 9 | +With this syntax, the test will inherit from `SomeClass`, so you can access to protected members. |
| 10 | + |
| 11 | + This is the least intrusive way, as there is nothing added to the tested class - apart from maybe replace private by protected. |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +* You can declare your class `friend` with the test class `GTEST(SomeClass)` : |
| 14 | + ```// Forward declare some GUnit classes |
| 15 | + template <typename ...> struct GTEST; |
| 16 | + namespace testing::detail { template <char ...> struct string; } |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | + class SomeClass { |
| 19 | + friend struct GTEST<SomeClass, testing::detail::string<> >; |
| 20 | + }; |
| 21 | +
|
| 22 | + GTEST(Game) { ... } |
| 23 | + ``` |
| 24 | +* You can also declare friend with the test class `GTEST("SomeTest")`, it is more cumbersome : |
| 25 | + ```// Forward declare some GUnit classes |
| 26 | + template <typename ...> struct GTEST; |
| 27 | + namespace testing::detail { template <char ...> struct string; } |
| 28 | +
|
| 29 | + class SomeClass { |
| 30 | + friend struct GTEST<testing::detail::string<'\"', 'S', 'o', 'm', 'e', 'T', ,'e', 's', 't', '\"', '\000'>, testing::detail::string<> >; |
| 31 | + }; |
| 32 | +
|
| 33 | + GTEST("SomeTest") { ... } |
| 34 | + ``` |
| 35 | +
|
| 36 | +* You can even declare friendness with `GTEST("SomeTest")` by importing some GUnit magic - but we're polluting our production code: |
| 37 | +``` |
| 38 | + #ifndef __GUNIT_CAT |
| 39 | + #define __GUNIT_PRIMITIVE_CAT(arg, ...) arg##__VA_ARGS__ |
| 40 | + #define __GUNIT_CAT(arg, ...) __GUNIT_PRIMITIVE_CAT(arg, __VA_ARGS__) |
| 41 | + #endif |
| 42 | + namespace { |
| 43 | + template <char ...> struct string {}; |
| 44 | + template <class TStr, std::size_t N, char... Chrs> struct make_string : make_string<TStr, N - 1, TStr().chrs[N - 1], Chrs...> {}; |
| 45 | + template <class TStr, char... Chrs> struct make_string<TStr, 0, Chrs...> { using type = string<Chrs...>; }; |
| 46 | + } |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | + #define FRIEND_GTEST(name) \ |
| 49 | + struct __GUNIT_CAT(GTEST_STRING_, __LINE__) { static constexpr const char* chrs = #name; }; \ |
| 50 | + friend struct GTEST<decltype(::make_string<__GUNIT_CAT(GTEST_STRING_, __LINE__), sizeof(#name)>::type()), ::string<>>; |
| 51 | + |
| 52 | + class SomeClass { |
| 53 | + FRIEND_GTEST("SomeTest") |
| 54 | + }; |
| 55 | + |
| 56 | + GTEST("SomeTest") { ... } |
| 57 | +``` |
