NAME

gtester - test running utility

SYNOPSIS

gtester [OPTION<?>] test-program

DESCRIPTION

gtester is a utility to run unit tests that have been written using
the GLib test framework.

Since GLib 2.62, gtester-report is deprecated. Use TAP for reporting
test results instead, and feed it to the test harness provided by
your build system.

When called with the -o option, gtester writes an XML report of the
test results, which can be converted into HTML using the
gtester-report utility.
