GTESTER() GTESTER()

NAME

gtester - test running utility

SYNOPSIS

gtester [OPTION…] test-program

DESCRIPTION

gtester is a utility to run unit tests that have been written using the GLib test framework.

Since GLib 2.62, gtester-report is deprecated. Use TAP for reporting test results instead, and feed it to the test harness provided by your build system.

When called with the -o option, gtester writes an XML report of the test results, which can be converted into HTML using the gtester-report utility.
