This topic describes the preconfigured "built-in" Test Configurations that are included with C++test.
C++test includes a set of preconfigured "built-in" Test Configurations representing most common test scenarios. You can further customize these configurations as needed by copying and modifying the built-in configurations, or by creating new user-defined configurations from scratch. User-defined Test Configurations can be placed in the User-defined or Team category. User-defined Test Configurations are stored on the local machine and are available for all tests performed by the local C++test installation. Team Test Configurations are stored on the team’s Team Server and can be accessed by all team members.
Static Analysis Group
This group includes universal static analysis test configurations. See Compliance Packs for test configurations that enforce coding standards
Test Configuration | Description |
---|---|
Recommended Rules | The default configuration of recommended rules. Covers most Severity 1 and Severity 2 rules. Includes rules in the Flow Analysis Fast configuration. |
Flow Analysis Standard | Detects complex runtime errors without requiring test cases or application execution. Defects detected include using uninitialized or invalid memory, null pointer dereferencing, array and buffer overflows, division by zero, memory and resource leaks, and dead code. This requires a special Flow Analysis license option. See Introducing Built-in Flow Analysis Test Configurations for more details on Flow Analysis Test Configurations. |
Flow Analysis Fast | The fast configuration uses "Shallowest" depth of analysis and runs faster than the standard and aggressive configurations. The fast configuration finds a moderate amount of problems and prevents violation number explosion. See Introducing Built-in Flow Analysis Test Configurations for more details on Flow Analysis Test Configurations. |
Flow Analysis Aggressive | The aggressive option reports any suspicious code as a violation. See Introducing Built-in Flow Analysis Test Configurations for more details on Flow Analysis Test Configurations. |

Utilities Group
Test Configuration | Description |
---|---|
Load Test Results (File) | Used to collect test results via the file channel. By default, this configuration assumes that logs are located inside |
Load Test Results (Sockets) | Used for "on the fly" collection of test results sent through TCP/IP sockets. It starts a java utility program to listen to and capture test results. You can customize the port numbers for test and coverage results. Port numbers are defined with the results_port and coverage_port properties. |
Extract Library Symbols | Used to extract a list of symbols from external libraries (or object files). It should be used whenever C++test’s standard algorithm for collecting information about symbols from binaries is not sufficient. For example if you use a Wind River DKM type of project, you may want to have all symbols from the VxWorks image collected in this way. You will probably need to enter the location of the binaries you want to extract symbols from, as well as the name of the nm-like utility that can be used to dump the content of library/object file. |
Generate Stubs Using External Library Symbols | Used to generate stubs after the "Extract Library Symbols" Test Configuration has been run. It assumes that a file with a list of symbols from external libraries is stored in the project temporary data. |
Load Application Coverage | Used to import the coverage data collected with the cpptestcc coverage tool into your IDE; see Collecting Application Coverage with cpptestcc. |
Load Archived Results | Used to load the archived results into C/C++test; see Merging Results from Multiple Test Runs. |
Code Review Group
Name | Scope | Code Review |
---|---|---|
Pre-Commit | Only files added or modified locally | For teams who want to review code before it is committed to source control. To use this Test Configuration, the Code Review Preference Show user assistant during scanner run setting must be enabled so that the author can designate the appropriate reviewer(s). See the Code Review for details. |
Post-Commit | All project files modified in the previous day | For teams who want to review code after it is committed to source control. This Test Configuration must be duplicated and customized prior to use (e.g, to specify author-reviewer mappings). See Code Review for details. |
