==========================

KUnit tests can often be compiled as a module. These modules should be named
|
KUnit tests are often compiled as a separate module. To avoid conflicting
|
||||||
after the test suite, followed by ``_test``. If this is likely to conflict with
|
with regular modules, KUnit modules should be named after the test suite,
|

non-KUnit tests, the suffix ``_kunit`` can also be used.
|
followed by ``_kunit`` (e.g. if "foobar" is the core module, then
|
||||||
|
"foobar_kunit" is the KUnit test module).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The easiest way of achieving this is to name the file containing the test suite
|
Test source files, whether compiled as a separate module or an
|
||||||
``<suite>_test.c`` (or, as above, ``<suite>_kunit.c``). This file should be

``#include`` in another source file, are best kept in a ``tests/``
|
||||||
placed next to the code under test.
|
subdirectory to not conflict with other source files (e.g. for
|
||||||
|
tab-completion).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Note that the ``_test`` suffix has also been used in some existing
|
||||||
|
tests. The ``_kunit`` suffix is preferred, as it makes the distinction
|
||||||
|
between KUnit and non-KUnit tests clearer.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
So for the common case, name the file containing the test suite
|
||||||
|
``tests/<suite>_kunit.c``. The ``tests`` directory should be placed at
|
||||||
|
the same level as the code under test. For example, tests for
|
||||||
|
``lib/string.c`` live in ``lib/tests/string_kunit.c``.

For example, a ``foo_firmware`` suite could be in the ``foo/firmware_test.c``

``foo/tests/firmware_kunit.c`` file.
