Hi,

for those that do unit testing, I committed a small tool "pas2ut" which analyses a unit, and creates a unit with a number of (empty) test cases. Obviously, the unit should be compileable (well, at least it must be parseable).

The output is very configurable, and should cover a lot of cases that one is likely to encounter when doing unit tests.

In particular, it handles creates tests for all members of the classes it finds in the unit (visibilities can be specified).

The basis for this tool is in the fcl-passrc unit pastounittest unit.

I would appreaciate feedback and suggestions.

(For one, integration with the Lazarus IDE is on my list)

I believe could be interesting to have a similar tool to generate "annotations" to a unit(or set of units).

The obvious example: insert calls to logging procedures at the enter and exit of each method, procedure or function of a unit.

With options to specify targets (all procedures, name some, etc... ) and templates to insert.

But anyway, thank you for these two tools, the pas2ut in special I believe will be very helpful.

This is already possible for some time. Take a look at the 'fpprofiler' project. I have a version of it that I worked on at:

https://github.com/graemeg/fpprofiler

But I think there is a newer fpprofiler repository hosted somewhere else now...

I just updated from SVN (after make clean), using fpc 2.6.0 (only ppc, no full install, I admit it could be may fault, I still dare to ask for help)

Where the packages also built?

I just see that a -Fu for fcl-base is missing, so that might be the cause...

Reagrds,
Sven

Yep, tried to patch it in
http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=22707
but my make/fpmake skills are quite weak ;)

My mistake. I forgot to add a dependency.

So, number 2 on the to-do list for pas2fpm: Add tracking of package dependencies :)

Michael.
