Setup

Prerequisites

The library is supported on Linux, OS X, FreeBSD, and Windows.

The following compilers are supported to compile both the library and the tests:

  • GCC 4.9+ (Can be relaxed to GCC 4.6+ when not using C++)
  • Clang 3.4+
  • MSVC 14+ (Included in Visual Studio 2015 or later)

Building from source

First, clone this repository:

$ git clone --recursive https://github.com/Snaipe/Criterion

Then, run the following commands to build Criterion:

$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
$ cmake --build .

Installing the library and language files (Linux, OS X, FreeBSD)

From the build directory created above, run with an elevated shell:

$ make install

Usage

To compile your tests with Criterion, you need to make sure to:

  1. Add the include directory to the header search path
  2. Install the library to your library search path
  3. Link Criterion to your executable.

This should be all you need.
