New port: check is a unit testing framework for C.  It features a simple interface for defining unit tests, putting little in the way of the developer. Tests are run in a separate address space, so Check can catch both assertion failures and code errors that cause segmentation faults or other signals. The output from unit tests can be used within source code editors and IDEs.

Sean Chittenden (seanc) · 0.9.3 · as devel/libcheck
Update libcheck (C unit testing library) to 0.9.3.  Port changes include:

*) Update check.m4 to search for libraries and headers in /usr/local/*
   and $prefix/*.  Ports/programs that use libcheck now work with the
   configure arg `--with-check` without needing to specify the
   location as an argument.  Someone with more autofoo may want to
   review this.  Patch submitted upstream.
*) Removed incorporated patches.
*) Installing docs and examples in their proper location.
*) Removed a description of the benefits of unit testing in pkg-descr.
*) No longer installing COPYING.
