C++ qmake/qt5 subdirs template project - using libs, apps, automated tests & deployments

Cute Project

A cross platform qmake subdirs template for C++ desktop apps.

It's based on single libs (modules) with automated tests, coverage & deployment.

This is a C++ qmake project template with automated unit tests execution (uses catch). Tests are implemented in separated executables (subdirs) which get executed during compilation incrementally. Compilation fails if any test fails. This is the ideal precondition for test driven development. Deployable packages/installers are build by CI servers.

This is meant to be an easy extendable qmake subdirs example project.
