| 6 | ## FAQ |

| 8 | #TODO... |
| 9 | |
| 10 | - linker issues? Make sure you have instantiated the test runner in only one source file. |
| 11 | |
| 12 | - stringification issues - if operator<<(ostream for a type is visible only in one source file... |
| 13 | |
| 14 | - why no regex and only wildcards |
| 15 | |
| 16 | - tests are ran serially - no multi-threaded execution planned for now |
| 17 | |
| 18 | - mocking is not included because it is orthogonal to testing and a different third party library may be used for that (google mock) |
| 19 | https://github.com/tpounds/mockitopp |
| 20 | |
| 21 | - linker errors for ```doctest::detail::...``` when using ```DOCTEST_CONFIG_DISABLE``` |
| 22 | solution: don't use anything from detail |
| 23 | |
| 24 | - property based testing - what it is and how to use it with doctest |
| 25 | |
| 26 | - tests in headers... might end up in different test suites - and only 1 of them will get registered? or might have ifdef-ed parts that get compiled differently based on how/where the header is included...... so not a good practice to write tests in header files |
| 27 | |
| 28 | - how subcases work - http://pastebin.com/rwghFzK4 - or look in the repo |
| 29 | |
| 30 | - why c++98? because. |
| 31 | |
| 32 | - will the library support checking for memory leaks? no. use tools like valgrind or the sanitizers. |
| 33 | |
| 34 | - mixing different versions of the framework within the same executable? |
| 35 | - unfortunately what single header libraries like [stb](https://github.com/nothings/stb) are doing is not feasible with this library. |
| 36 | - it could be done if tests are written only in source files where the library has been implemented with the ```DOCTEST_CONFIG_IMPLEMENT``` macro but that is very limiting. |
| 37 | |
| 38 | - is the VC++6 support full? |
| 39 | - no |
| 40 | - the stringification with ```ostream& operator<<(ostream&, myType)``` is disabled |
| 41 | - comparing C strings will compare the pointers and not the actual strings |
| 42 | - VC6 subcases not working - set a bounty on this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/36940730/preprocessor-problems-with-vc6 |
