Test Adapter for Google Test

UPDATE (01/02/2018): Visual Studio 2017 15.5 now offers Google Test support by default, so this extension is no longer necessary! Simply open the Visual Studio Installer and select "Test Adapter for Google Test" from the "Desktop development with C++"€ workload. Visit the Visual Studio Docs for a simple guide to setting up your Google tests.

The Test Adapter for Google Test is a unit testing extension published by Microsoft and based on the existing Google Test Adapter Visual Studio extension by Christian Soltenborn and Jonas Gefele. This extension is developed in collaboration with the original project with the aim of improving Google Test support for C++ developers using Visual Studio 2017.

Key Features:

• Automatically discover unit tests
• Enables IDE tools (like the Test Explorer window) to run and manage Google tests
• View test execution results
• New Project template for Google Test
• New Item template for Google Test
• Check code coverage (for Visual Studio Enterprise users)

For more details, please reference our Release Notes.
