  • When adding a new concrete class, a test should also be added in
...VTK/Package/Testing/Cxx/
  • The name of the file for the test should be ClassName.cxx where the name of the class is vtkClassName.
  • Each test should call several functions, each as short as possible, to exercise a specific functionality of the class. 1,000 lines in main() is very hard to maintain...
  • The "main()" function of the test file must be called TestClassName(int, char*[])

Questions

  • Do we bother covering deprecated classes?
  • Is there a way to mark deprecated classes as deprecated so they do not show up on the coverage dashboards?
