Streamlines the creation, debugging, and optimization of C++ test suites using GoogleTest, GMock, and CTest.
This skill provides a comprehensive agentic workflow for modern C++ (C++17/20) testing environments. It guides users through the full TDD cycle—Red, Green, Refactor—while specializing in GoogleTest and GoogleMock integration within CMake-based projects. Beyond basic test writing, the skill excels at configuring CTest for stable discovery, diagnosing flaky or non-deterministic tests, and implementing advanced diagnostics such as code coverage reporting and LLVM/GCC sanitizers (ASan, TSan, UBSan) to catch memory leaks and race conditions.
