Chatterino includes a set of unit tests and benchmarks. These can be built using CMake by adding the `-DBUILD_TESTS=On` and `-DBUILD_BENCHMARKS=On` flags respectively.
1. Create a new file for the file you're adding tests for. If you're creating tests for `src/providers/emoji/Emojis.cpp`, create `tests/src/Emojis.cpp`.
2. Add the newly created file to `tests/CMakeLists.txt` in the `test_SOURCES` variable (see the comment near it)
See `tests/src/Emojis.cpp` for simple tests you can base your tests off of.
Read up on http://google.github.io/googletest/primer.html to figure out how GoogleTest works.
## Building and running tests
```sh
mkdir build-tests
cd build-tests
cmake -DBUILD_TESTS=On ..
make
./bin/chatterino-test
```
### Example output

```
## Adding your own benchmark
1. Create a new file for the file you're adding benchmark for. If you're creating benchmarks for `src/providers/emoji/Emojis.cpp`, create `benchmarks/src/Emojis.cpp`.
2. Add the newly created file to `benchmarks/CMakeLists.txt` in the `benchmark_SOURCES` variable (see the comment near it)
See `benchmarks/src/Emojis.cpp` for simple benchmark you can base your benchmarks off of.
## Building and running benchmarks
```sh
mkdir build-benchmarks
cd build-benchmarks
cmake -DBUILD_BENCHMARKS=On ..
make
./bin/chatterino-benchmark
```
