Catch

Adding Catch to your project

1. Download the latest version of the catch.hpp file and copy it to your project tree.

2. Include the header in your test files:

   #include "catch.hpp"

3. In only one source file, precede the #include with either #define CATCH_CONFIG_MAIN or CATCH_CONFIG_RUNNER (use the latter if you want to supply your own main()).

Catch run/debug configuration

1. To create a Catch configuration, go to Run | Edit Configurations, click and select Catch from the list of templates.

2. 

   Specify the configuration settings:

   • Set the configuration name in the Name field. This name will be shown in the list of the available run/debug configurations.

   • Select the Tags/Test option to run a test for the particular tags or all the tags. Select the Pattern option to run all the tests for a particular pattern.

   • Specify tags in the Tags fields. This field is available only when the Tags/Test option is selected.

   • Select the desired test from the Test list. This option is available only when one or more tags have been provided.

   • Specify the pattern name in the Pattern field. This field is available only when the Pattern option is selected.

   • In the Target field, select the desired target from the list of available targets.

3. Save the configuration, and it's ready for running or debugging .

note

Instead of editing a single configuration, you can modify the Catch template itself. In this case, the settings you specify will apply as defaults to all new configurations of this type.
