* CTest must use proper paths to executables
With the following syntax:
```
add_test(NAME <name> COMMAND <command> [<arg>...])
```
if `<command>` specifies an executable target it will automatically
be replaced by the location of the executable created at build time.
This is important if a `<Configuration>_POSTFIX` like `_d` is used.
* Fix typo in ctest invocation
Instead of `-c` the uppercase `-C` must be used to select a config.
But better use the longopt.
* Add support for GTest based unit tests.
As Dominic and I have previously discussed, there is some
need/desire to improve the testing situation in Google Benchmark.
One step to fixing this problem is to make it easier to write
unit tests by adding support for GTest, which is what this patch does.
By default it looks for an installed version of GTest. However the
user can specify -DBENCHMARK_BUILD_EXTERNAL_GTEST=ON to instead
download, build, and use copy of gtest from source. This is
quite useful when Benchmark is being built in non-standard configurations,
such as against libc++ or in 32 bit mode.
The plain MinGW enviroment does not provide any threading supporting, including
in the C++ STL. The MinGW-w64 enviroment does not have this problem.
This patch removes the 32 bit bot since it's always going to fail.
Currently out Appveyor CI downloads and stashes a custom MinGW installation.
However the builder already provides both 64 and 32 bit installations of MinGW.
This patch changes our CI to use those instead.
I'm hoping this will fix issues where the g++ is broken due to the Appveyor
package caching semantics.
Currently the Appveyor bot is a PIT. It never passes and it often hangs
or gives very poor output. This patch rewrites the configuration.
This patch also attempts to fix a flaky complexity test as a drive-by.
Previously the FittingCurve functions for n^2 and n^3 did the calculation
using int types. This can overflow and cause UB. This patch changes the
calculations to use std::pow to prevent this.
Also re-enable VC 2013 appveyor bot since I *hope* this is what was causing
the failures.
This file provides scripting to build the benchmark library in the cloud
on the appveyor build system. It provides a matrix of configurations to
cover as many possibilities as it can. Eventually MSVC can be added to the
matrix to provide coverage of the Visual Studio solutions.
