## C++ tests on iOS 
 
[GTMGoogleTestRunner](https://github.com/google/google-toolbox-for-mac/blob/master/UnitTesting/GTMGoogleTestRunner.mm) is used to convert googletest cases to XCTest that can be run on iOS. GTMGoogleTestRunner doesn't execute the `main` function, so we can't have any test logic in `main`. 
However, it's ok to call `::testing::InitGoogleTest` in `main`, as `GTMGoogleTestRunner` [calls InitGoogleTest](https://github.com/google/google-toolbox-for-mac/blob/master/UnitTesting/GTMGoogleTestRunner.mm#L151). 
`grpc::testing::TestEnvironment` can also be called from `main`, as it does some test initialization (install crash handler, seed RNG) that's not strictly required to run testcases on iOS. 
 
 
## Porting exising C++ tests to run on iOS 
 
Please follow these guidelines when porting tests to run on iOS: 
 
- Tests need to use the googletest framework 
- Any setup/teardown code in `main` needs to be moved to `SetUpTestCase`/`TearDownTestCase`, and `TEST` needs to be changed to `TEST_F`. 
- [Death tests](https://github.com/google/googletest/blob/master/googletest/docs/advanced.md#death-tests) are not supported on iOS, so use the `*_IF_SUPPORTED()` macros to ensure that your code compiles on iOS. 
 
For example, the following test 
```c++ 
TEST(MyTest, TestOne) { 
  ASSERT_DEATH(ThisShouldDie(), ""); 
} 
 
int main(int argc, char** argv) { 
  grpc::testing::TestEnvironment env(argc, argv); 
  ::testing::InitGoogleTest(&argc, argv); 
  grpc_init(); 
  return RUN_ALL_TESTS(); 
  grpc_shutdown(); 
} 
``` 
 
should be changed to 
```c++ 
class MyTest : public ::testing::Test { 
 protected: 
  static void SetUpTestCase() { grpc_init(); } 
  static void TearDownTestCase() { grpc_shutdown(); } 
}; 
 
TEST_F(MyTest, TestOne) { 
  ASSERT_DEATH_IF_SUPPORTED(ThisShouldDie(), ""); 
} 
 
int main(int argc, char** argv) { 
  grpc::testing::TestEnvironment env(argc, argv); 
  ::testing::InitGoogleTest(&argc, argv); 
  return RUN_ALL_TESTS(); 
} 
``` 
 
## Limitations 
 
Due to a [limitation](https://github.com/google/google-toolbox-for-mac/blob/master/UnitTesting/GTMGoogleTestRunner.mm#L48-L56) in GTMGoogleTestRunner, `SetUpTestCase`/`TeardownTestCase` will be called before/after *every* individual test case, similar to `SetUp`/`TearDown`.
