General information
===================

This is CppTest version @VERSION@. CppTest is a portable and powerful, yet
simple, unit testing framework for handling automated tests in C++. The focus
lies on usability and extendability. Several output formats are supported and
new ones are easily added.

Documentation is either generated (using 'make') or found on the home page. 
Generated documentation is found under 'doc/html', and the starting point is 
'doc/html/index.html'. Code examples are found under 'test'.

The official project home is: https://github.com/cpptest/cpptest

Installation
============

See the files INSTALL.quick and INSTALL.

How to report bugs

  If possible, please include a short test program that reproduces the behavoir.
  As a last resort, you can also provide a pointer to a larger piece
  of software that can be downloaded.

  If the bug was a crash, supply the exact text that was printed out when the
  crash occured.

- Further information such as stack traces may also be useful.

Patches
=======

Patches should also be submitted to the bug tracking system (see above). If the
patch fixes an existing bug, add the patch as an attachment to that bug report.

Otherwise, enter a new bug report that describes the patch, and attach the
patch to that bug report. Please use the PATCH keyword in Bugzilla.

Patches should be in unified diff form, that is, using the -u option to
GNU diff.
