The goal of mockcpp is to package up a testthat integration of trompeloeil

Trompeloeil is...

A thread-safe header-only mocking framework for C++11/14 using the Boost Software License 1.0

Setup

1. Set up your R package to test C++ using testthat:

usethis::use_testthat() # set up your package for testthat
testthat::use_catch() # set up your package to test C++ using catch and testthat

2. Add mockcpp to your package:

You should add it to your DESCRIPTION:

Remotes:
  ...
  mrc-ide/mockcpp
Imports:
  ...
  mockcpp
LinkingTo:
  ...
  testthat,
  mockcpp

3. Make sure you are compiling against the C++14 standard

You should add the following to your Makevars:

CXX_STD = CXX14
