Name

TestResult

Description

The class TestResult (see Figure C-26) receives test results from Test objects. Test results can be categorized as successes, failures, and errors. Normally, when multiple Test classes are run, a single TestResult is passed to the run( ) method of each Test.

A TestResult informs its observers of test progress and results using the TestListener interface. The TestListener subclass TestResultCollector normally is used to store the results. TestResult doesn’t store the results itself.

A TestResult is a SynchronizedObject. Its operations are mutex-protected and thread-safe, allowing Test and TestListener objects to run in separate threads.

TestResult belongs to the namespace CppUnit. It is declared in TestResult.h and implemented in TestResult.cpp.
