Using gtest on vscode to test applications written on nCS

[Ubaid_M]

Hi,

I am using nCS v1.8.0 for application development on nRF Connect extension of vscode.

But I am unable to configure any unit testing framework to test my applications.

I started using gtest, but couldn't run it.

Can someone kindly point me on how I can setup any unit testing tool on nRF Connect extension of vscode..?

Thanks,

Hi Mohammed,

Happy New Year!!

We don't provide any unit testing functionality in the nRF VS Code extension as of now. We might work on this towards the future. For the time being, you could take a look at the zephyr docs wrt testing.

Also, feel free to update us regarding any alternate methods you find for the same.

Regards,

Priyanka

Hello Priyanka,

Thank you, Here's to wishing you a Happy new year as well.
Noted that unit testing is a future release, But I need to test applications I developed using nCS.

Hence, Request you to point me on how I can setup gtest on vscode nRF Connect Extension to test my nCS app,
It would be great if you can kindly get me an opinion of any nCS developers or testers for this.

Thanks,
Ubaid

Hi Ubaid,

I was informed by our nRF Connect Developers that this is out of our scope and not possible.
