Importing External C/C++ Tests

Import C/C++ tests authored using GoogleTest or another external test authoring framework

You can import tests authored using GoogleTest or another external test authoring framework into a Polyspace Platform project. Importing external tests allows you to:

Build these existing tests along with any new test you add to the project (graphical tests or tests authored using the Polyspace^® Test™ xUnit API).
Run these tests and review the test results in the Polyspace Platform user interface, just as you would with tests authored using Polyspace Test.
