Unfortunately they don't suggest any good way to handle your build process with it in their examples. Seems to me they never tried testing an application with it. I plan to go down the QTestLib route. Maybe it could be combined with LDTP[1] for blackbox testing -- they claim to be able to use Qt 4's accessibility to control an application. > buildsystem issues. You'll need one .pro per test.

But generally there should be no reason to have more than one .pro file for all tests. You just need to manually maintain a list of test classes or create some kind of static instance self-registration (which I did). > http://doc.trolltech.com/4.4/qtestlib-manual.html#qtestlib [1] http://ldtp.freedesktop.org/ -- Jan 'Bulb' Hudec <bulb@xxxxxx> -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
