What is Catch2?

Catch2 is mainly a unit testing framework for C++, but it also provides basic micro-benchmarking features, and simple BDD macros.

Catch2's main advantage is that using it is both simple and natural. Test names do not have to be valid identifiers, assertions look like normal C++ boolean expressions, and sections provide a nice and local way to share set-up and tear-down code in tests.

Example unit test

#include <catch2/catch_test_macros.hpp>

#include <cstdint>

uint32_t factorial( uint32_t number ) {
    return number <= 1 ? number : factorial(number-1) * number;
}

TEST_CASE( "Factorials are computed", "[factorial]" ) {
    REQUIRE( factorial( 1) == 1 );
    REQUIRE( factorial( 2) == 2 );
    REQUIRE( factorial( 3) == 6 );
    REQUIRE( factorial(10) == 3'628'800 );
}
