# Quickstart: Building with Bazel |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This tutorial aims to get you up and running with GoogleTest using the Bazel |
||||||
|
build system. If you're using GoogleTest for the first time or need a refresher, |
||||||
|
we recommend this tutorial as a starting point. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Prerequisites |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To complete this tutorial, you'll need: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* A compatible operating system (e.g. Linux, macOS, Windows). |
||||||
|
* A compatible C++ compiler that supports at least C++11. |
||||||
|
* [Bazel](https://bazel.build/), the preferred build system used by the |
||||||
|
GoogleTest team. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
See [Supported Platforms](platforms.md) for more information about platforms |
||||||
|
compatible with GoogleTest. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you don't already have Bazel installed, see the |
||||||
|
[Bazel installation guide](https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/install.html). |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
{: .callout .note} |
||||||
|
Note: The terminal commands in this tutorial show a Unix shell prompt, but the |
||||||
|
commands work on the Windows command line as well. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Set up a Bazel workspace |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A |
||||||
|
[Bazel workspace](https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/build-ref.html#workspace) |
||||||
|
is a directory on your filesystem that you use to manage source files for the |
||||||
|
software you want to build. Each workspace directory has a text file named |
||||||
|
`WORKSPACE` which may be empty, or may contain references to external |
||||||
|
dependencies required to build the outputs. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
First, create a directory for your workspace: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
``` |
||||||
|
$ mkdir my_workspace && cd my_workspace |
||||||
|
``` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Next, you’ll create the `WORKSPACE` file to specify dependencies. A common and |
||||||
|
recommended way to depend on GoogleTest is to use a |
||||||
|
[Bazel external dependency](https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/external.html) |
||||||
|
via the |
||||||
|
[`http_archive` rule](https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/repo/http.html#http_archive). |
||||||
|
To do this, in the root directory of your workspace (`my_workspace/`), create a |
||||||
|
file named `WORKSPACE` with the following contents: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
``` |
||||||
|
load("@bazel_tools//tools/build_defs/repo:http.bzl", "http_archive") |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
http_archive( |
||||||
|
name = "com_google_googletest", |
||||||
|
urls = ["https://github.com/google/googletest/archive/609281088cfefc76f9d0ce82e1ff6c30cc3591e5.zip"], |
||||||
|
strip_prefix = "googletest-609281088cfefc76f9d0ce82e1ff6c30cc3591e5", |
||||||
|
) |
||||||
|
``` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The above configuration declares a dependency on GoogleTest which is downloaded |
||||||
|
as a ZIP archive from GitHub. In the above example, |
||||||
|
`609281088cfefc76f9d0ce82e1ff6c30cc3591e5` is the Git commit hash of the |
||||||
|
GoogleTest version to use; we recommend updating the hash often to point to the |
||||||
|
latest version. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Bazel also needs a dependency on the |
||||||
|
[`rules_cc` repository](https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_cc) to build C++ |
||||||
|
code, so add the following to the `WORKSPACE` file: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
``` |
||||||
|
http_archive( |
||||||
|
name = "rules_cc", |
||||||
|
urls = ["https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_cc/archive/40548a2974f1aea06215272d9c2b47a14a24e556.zip"], |
||||||
|
strip_prefix = "rules_cc-40548a2974f1aea06215272d9c2b47a14a24e556", |
||||||
|
) |
||||||
|
``` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Now you're ready to build C++ code that uses GoogleTest. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Create and run a binary |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
With your Bazel workspace set up, you can now use GoogleTest code within your |
||||||
|
own project. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
As an example, create a file named `hello_test.cc` in your `my_workspace` |
||||||
|
directory with the following contents: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```cpp |
||||||
|
#include <gtest/gtest.h> |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
// Demonstrate some basic assertions. |
||||||
|
TEST(HelloTest, BasicAssertions) { |
||||||
|
// Expect two strings not to be equal. |
||||||
|
EXPECT_STRNE("hello", "world"); |
||||||
|
// Expect equality. |
||||||
|
EXPECT_EQ(7 * 6, 42); |
||||||
|
} |
||||||
|
``` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
GoogleTest provides [assertions](primer.md#assertions) that you use to test the |
||||||
|
behavior of your code. The above sample includes the main GoogleTest header file |
||||||
|
and demonstrates some basic assertions. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To build the code, create a file named `BUILD` in the same directory with the |
||||||
|
following contents: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
``` |
||||||
|
load("@rules_cc//cc:defs.bzl", "cc_test") |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
cc_test( |
||||||
|
name = "hello_test", |
||||||
|
size = "small", |
||||||
|
srcs = ["hello_test.cc"], |
||||||
|
deps = ["@com_google_googletest//:gtest_main"], |
||||||
|
) |
||||||
|
``` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This `cc_test` rule declares the C++ test binary you want to build, and links to |
||||||
|
GoogleTest (`//:gtest_main`) using the prefix you specified in the `WORKSPACE` |
||||||
|
file (`@com_google_googletest`). For more information about Bazel `BUILD` files, |
||||||
|
see the |
||||||
|
[Bazel C++ Tutorial](https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/tutorial/cpp.html). |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Now you can build and run your test: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<pre> |
||||||
|

||||||
