65 // The following macros are useful for writing death tests.
67 // Here's what happens when an ASSERT_DEATH* or EXPECT_DEATH* is
70 // 1. It generates a warning if there is more than one active
71 // thread. This is because it's safe to fork() or clone() only
72 // when there is a single thread.
74 // 2. The parent process clone()s a sub-process and runs the death
75 // test in it; the sub-process exits with code 0 at the end of the
76 // death test, if it hasn't exited already.
78 // 3. The parent process waits for the sub-process to terminate.
80 // 4. The parent process checks the exit code and error message of
85 // ASSERT_DEATH(server.SendMessage(56, "Hello"), "Invalid port number");
86 // for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
87 // EXPECT_DEATH(server.ProcessRequest(i),
88 // "Invalid request .* in ProcessRequest()")
89 // << "Failed to die on request " << i;

100 // On the regular expressions used in death tests:
102 // On POSIX-compliant systems (*nix), we use the <regex.h> library,
103 // which uses the POSIX extended regex syntax.
105 // On other platforms (e.g. Windows), we only support a simple regex
106 // syntax implemented as part of Google Test. This limited
107 // implementation should be enough most of the time when writing
108 // death tests; though it lacks many features you can find in PCRE
109 // or POSIX extended regex syntax. For example, we don't support
110 // union ("x|y"), grouping ("(xy)"), brackets ("[xy]"), and
111 // repetition count ("x{5,7}"), among others.
113 // Below is the syntax that we do support. We chose it to be a
114 // subset of both PCRE and POSIX extended regex, so it's easy to
115 // learn wherever you come from. In the following: 'A' denotes a
116 // literal character, period (.), or a single \\ escape sequence;
117 // 'x' and 'y' denote regular expressions; 'm' and 'n' are for
120 // c matches any literal character c
121 // \\d matches any decimal digit
122 // \\D matches any character that's not a decimal digit
126 // \\s matches any ASCII whitespace, including \n
127 // \\S matches any character that's not a whitespace
130 // \\w matches any letter, _, or decimal digit
131 // \\W matches any character that \\w doesn't match
132 // \\c matches any literal character c, which must be a punctuation
133 // . matches any single character except \n
134 // A? matches 0 or 1 occurrences of A
135 // A* matches 0 or many occurrences of A
136 // A+ matches 1 or many occurrences of A
137 // ^ matches the beginning of a string (not that of each line)
138 // $ matches the end of a string (not that of each line)
139 // xy matches x followed by y
141 // If you accidentally use PCRE or POSIX extended regex features
142 // not implemented by us, you will get a run-time failure. In that
143 // case, please try to rewrite your regular expression within the
146 // This implementation is *not* meant to be as highly tuned or robust
147 // as a compiled regex library, but should perform well enough for a
148 // death test, which already incurs significant overhead by launching
153 // A "threadsafe" style death test obtains the path to the test
154 // program from argv[0] and re-executes it in the sub-process. For
155 // simplicity, the current implementation doesn't search the PATH
156 // when launching the sub-process. This means that the user must
157 // invoke the test program via a path that contains at least one
158 // path separator (e.g. path/to/foo_test and
159 // /absolute/path/to/bar_test are fine, but foo_test is not). This
160 // is rarely a problem as people usually don't put the test binary
161 // directory in PATH.
