Run Tests

Overview

Run C++ tests built with Catch2. Test sources are in apps/tests/, grouped by feature area.

Prerequisites

Build the project first using the build command. Test binaries are output to <cmake-binary-directory>/<configuration>/bin/.

Run All Tests in a Binary

cd <cmake-binary-directory>/<configuration>/bin
./uipc_test_<name>

Test binary names follow the pattern uipc_test_<name> where <name> matches the CMake target name in apps/tests/. On Windows, the executable will have an .exe extension.

Run a Specific Test Case

./uipc_test_<name> "<test-case-name>"

Run Tests Matching a Tag

Catch2 tags are used to group tests (e.g., [geometry], [core]):

./uipc_test_<name> '[geometry]'

Adjust Log Level

./uipc_test_<name> --log-level <level>

Levels: trace, debug, info, warn, error, critical, off.

List Available Tests

./uipc_test_<name> --list-tests

Python tests (pytest)

Python tests live under python/tests/. Run them with the project venv after installing pyuipc (e.g. uv pip install -e . or a CMake build that installs into the venv).

To avoid uv re-syncing (and rebuilding) the project every time, use --no-sync:

uv run --no-sync pytest python/tests

Or run pytest from the venv directly:

.venv/bin/pytest python/tests

Without --no-sync, uv run syncs the environment first, which (re)builds and installs pyuipc from source.
