Add Jenkins workflow and optimise testing mechanism
Thanks for your contribution. But this is not we change we would accept as this is clearly for a specific downstream implementation which is is not used in our repo. Also we are doing Coverage is a different way (but it is currently temporally disabled because of an upstream issue).
I do like the approach of collecting coverage for each separate test. This is something I wanted to do myself in the past in a different project.
The title does not describe the actual changes.
Also this is not portable and more of a hack.
Also you can achieve this without changing a single line of code. The compiler flags are supposed to be passed to make via CXXFLAGS. And you can simply execute testrunner for each test from a script which prepares and specifies the environment. Some recently introduced parameter allow that. Please take a look at test/scripts/testrunner-single.sh. Extending the loop body at line 16 should be sufficient. There is a downsize though because all tests (and related data) are loaded at each start-up so you might still require the flush. Instantiating the tests only when they are actually executed is being in tracked in https://trac.cppcheck.net/ticket/12080 and will hopefully be addressed within the year.
Still some additional comments in case we will keep using this locally.
No reply in over two weeks - closing.
Please re-open if comments are being addressed and there is still something to apply.
