About the µTest++ Testing Framework

The project

The µTest++ Testing Framework project is part of the µOS++ Framework and is hosted on GitHub as micro-os-plus/micro-test-plus-xpack.

µTest++ is a lightweight testing framework for C++20 projects. It is designed primarily for embedded targets, where it runs on bare-metal Cortex-M, Cortex-A, and RISC-V devices and on QEMU, but it is equally suitable for native applications on Linux, macOS, and Windows.

Within µOS++, it is used to write the tests of the other packages, such as diag-trace and utils-lists. It does not depend on any other µOS++ package, so it can also be used in projects unrelated to µOS++.

The project history

The µTest++ Testing Framework history is presented on a separate History page.

The website

In February 2025, as part of the project restructuring, the Docusaurus template was instantiated within the website folder, alongside the Doxygen configuration, which was retained for the reference pages.
