Overview
Generate comprehensive C++ unit tests for OpenHarmony code following HWTEST_F framework conventions.
Key Features
- Automatic Test Generation: Create test cases for normal/exception/boundary scenarios
- Mock Object Support: Mock class creation and EXPECT_CALL/ON_CALL setup
- BUILD.gn Configuration: Automatic dependency matching with source files
- Coverage Optimization: 75% minimum coverage, targeting 85%+
- Code Style Consistency: Maintains consistency with existing test patterns (>=70% threshold)
- NDK/NAPI Support: Special handling for NDK interfaces (7088+ OH_xxx) and NAPI functions (302+ napi_xxx)
- CJSON Testing: Complete support for CJSON library testing patterns
Usage
Invoke this skill when you need to generate unit tests for OpenHarmony C++ source files.
Supported Scenarios
- Single File Testing: Generate tests for all functions in a source file
- Specific Function Testing: Generate tests for a specific function only
- Test File Extension: Append new test cases to existing test files
- Mock Generation: Automatically create mock classes for dependencies
Critical Requirements
Test Implementation Completeness
- Complete Implementation Only: Every test case must have complete implementation
- No Comments-Only Tests: Forbidden to generate tests with only comments or empty bodies
- Mock Usage: If Mock objects are created, they must be used with EXPECT_CALL/ON_CALL
- Branch-Assertion Correspondence: Branch assertions must match branch logic exactly
Coverage Requirements
- Minimum: 75% branch and line coverage (mandatory)
- Target: 85% branch and line coverage (goal)
- Scope: Boundary conditions, exception paths, normal paths, all conditional branches
Code Style Consistency
When existing test files exist:
- Smart Pointer Type: Must match existing code (sptr/wptr vs std::shared_ptr)
- Mock Usage: Must match existing Mock patterns
- Assertion Style: Must match existing assertion preferences (EXPECT_ vs ASSERT_)
- Test Structure: Must match existing test fixtures and naming patterns
Consistency Threshold: >=70% for important scenarios
Security Coding
- Memory Management: Match original function's smart pointer usage pattern
- Variable Initialization: All variables must be initialized
- Boundary Checks: Required before array/container access
- Null Pointer Checks: Required before pointer dereference
- Return Value Checks: Required for critical functions
Framework Specifications
HWTEST_F Framework
// Test fixture structure
class YourServiceTest : public testing::Test {
public:
static void SetUpTestCase(void);
static void TearDownTestCase(void);
void SetUp();
void TearDown();
std::shared_ptr<YourService> instance_;
};
// Test case format
HWTEST_F(TestClassName, TestCaseName_001, TestSize.Level1)
Test Case Naming
_001: Normal scenario_002: Exception scenario_003: Boundary scenario_004+: Other special scenarios
Object Management
// Standard smart pointers
SetUp(): instance_ = std::make_shared<YourService>();
TearDown(): instance_ = nullptr;
// OpenHarmony sptr/wptr
SetUp(): instance_ = MakeSptr<YourService>(); // or instance_ = new YourService();
TearDown(): instance_ = nullptr;
Mock Usage
auto mock = std::make_shared<MockClass>();
EXPECT_CALL(*mock, Method()).WillOnce(Return(value));
Assertions
ASSERT_NE(instance_, nullptr); // Must check
EXPECT_EQ(result, expected);
EXPECT_TRUE(condition);
NDK Interface Testing
For NDK interfaces (OH_xxx), follow these requirements:
- Resource Lifecycle: Create/Destroy pairing is mandatory
- Test Structure: Normal path (001), Exception path (002), Boundary (003)
- Return Value Verification: Test all error codes
- Parameter Validation: Test null pointers, invalid values, boundaries
CJSON Testing
For CJSON library operations:
- Parse Tests: Normal, null pointer, invalid JSON
- Get Item Tests: Normal get, non-existent item, type checks
- Create Tests: Object, array, value creation
- Memory Management: All cJSON objects must be deleted
BUILD.gn Requirements
ohos_unittest Target
ohos_unittest("{CamelCase}Test") {
module_out_path = "subsystem/module"
branch_protector_ret = "pac_ret"
sanitize = {
integer_overflow = true
cfi = true
cfi_cross_dso = true
debug = false
}
sources = ["test_file.cpp"] # Alphabetically sorted
include_dirs = ["//include/path"]
deps = [":source_target"]
external_deps = [
"hilog:libhilog",
"c_utils:utils",
"googletest:gtest_main"
]
defines = ["private=public"]
}
Configuration Matching
The system automatically extracts source file's BUILD.gn configuration:
- deps: Must include all source target dependencies
- external_deps: Must include all external dependencies
- include_dirs: Must include all include directories
- defines: Must match source defines (add private=public if needed)
