GTest pass std::vector as a parameter source-CodePudding

I have a function which reads out all files in a selected directory.

std::vector<std::string> getAllFilesInDirectory(const std::string_view strDirectory);

Now I'd like to run my tests on each element of that vector. My test fixture is pretty straight forward.

class myTestfixture: public ::testing::TestWithParam<std::string> 
{
public:
  myTestfixture();
  ~myTestfixture() override;
};

Now I'd like to pass each element of the vector to my tests. I know I can pass single explicit values to :testing::Values, but passing a stl container does not work.

INSTANTIATE_TEST_CASE_P(
  myTest,
  myTestfixture,
  ::testing::Values(
    getAllFilesInDirectory("myDir")
  ));

TEST_P(myTestfixture, ValidTest)
{
//test something
}

Is it even possible to pass containers as a parameter source to gtest?

CodePudding user response：

You have almost done it but with a small mistake. Try to use ValuesIn() instead of Values().

INSTANTIATE_TEST_CASE_P(
  myTest,
  myTestfixture,
  ::testing::ValuesIn(
    getAllFilesInDirectory("myDir")
  ));
