Overview

About

Maintained by Giovanni Charles1 releasesCRAN page ↗

A header only library integrating 'testthat' with 'trompeoeil' to provide mocking for C++ code in R packages. Mocking is a technique for making a fake version of a software service. You can mock services to test that your code interacts correctly with external interfaces, to make your tests deterministic, or to break your tests down into smaller units. 'testthat' provides a testing framework for R and C++ code in R packages. 'trompeoeil' is a C++ header only library for mocking.

Install

R (source archive)openSUSE (OBS)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/mockcpp/mockcpp_0.0.1.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "mockcpp_0.0.1.tar.gz"
download.file(url, pkgFile)
install.packages(pkgFile, type = "source", repos = NULL)

This package is no longer on CRAN, so install.packages() cannot fetch it by name. This downloads the last archived source (0.0.1) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
