Hi Daniel,

welcome to OpenOffice and your interest in testing and automated tests
is perfect. We still have on our wish list the integration of new unit
test framework because cppunit is license incompatible.

I personally believe that the googletest framework [1] can be a good
choice and I am asking if you are potentially interested to start
something new going in this direction. It's an active project and is
used in Google internal projects and in some popular projects like
Chromium, LLVM.

This would be a really cool project and we have to start with it sooner
or later. What do you think?

As first steps I would recommend to
1. set up your own build environment for AOO
2. integrate the googletest in our build process (compile the source
from scratch in our env)
3. start using it by migrating some existing cppunit tests or implement
new ones

Again welcome at OpenOffice

Juergen
