    The existing test harness is a homemade shell script. All the tests
    and the expected results are written in plain text files. The harness
    just reads in a test, invoke the glslangValidator binary on it, and
    compare the result with the golden file. All tests are kinda
    integration tests.
    
    This patch add Google Test as an external project, which provides a
    new harness for reading shader source files, compile to SPIR-V, and
    then compare with the expected output.

Glslang Tests based on the Google Test Framework

This directory contains Google Test based test fixture and test cases for glslang.

Apart from typical unit tests, necessary utility methods are added into the GlslangTests fixture to provide the ability to do file-based integration tests. Various *.FromFile.cpp files lists names of files containing input shader code in the Test/ directory. Utility methods will load the input shader source, compile them, and compare with the corresponding expected output in the Test/baseResults/ directory.

How to run the tests

Please make sure you have a copy of Google Test checked out under the External directory before building. After building, just run the ctest command or the gtests/glslangtests binary in your build directory.

The gtests/glslangtests binary also provides an --update-mode command line option, which, if supplied, will overwrite the golden files under the Test/baseResults/ directory with real output from that invocation. This serves as an easy way to update golden files.
