Catch2 is great as a unit test framework.
Running unit tests with the address sanitizer and UB sanitizer enabled go a long way towards addressing most memory safety bugs. The kind of C++ you write then is a far cry from what the haters complain about with bad old VC6 era C++.
- einpoklum 1y ago> Catch2 is great as a unit test framework. It's "great" mainly in the sense of being very large, and making your code very lage - and slow to build. I would not recommend it unless you absolutely must have some particular feature not existing elsewhere. Here's a long list of C++ unit testing frameworks: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unit_testing_frameworks#C++ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unit_testing_framework...

- jonstewart 1y agoI guess I consider it great in comparison to CppUnit, Boost Test, and Google Test. I also like that it incorporated nonius, that's a big win.
