Debugger does not show variable value in unit testing

dtila · February 13, 2023, 6:42am

Hello!

I have a PlatformIO native project where I have added a dependency to ArduinoFake (mostly for FakeIt, not Arduino mock) to mock in unit testing.

When I mock a return value, the value does not show ok in debugger:

However simple values are shown correctly, only the ones from FakeIt have this symptoms.

Even if debugger does not show correctly, the tests are passing:

Building...
Testing...
test\test_native_sut\SUTTests.cpp:54: TestMock  [PASSED]

The sample project is available here: GitHub - dtila/platfornio_unittesting

Does anyone has an idea why?

help wanted debugging unit testing

Given a small PlatformIO project referencing ArduinoMock, the debugger does not …display the value given by the mock. ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/5718468/218706747-7e10d812-12e2-4e0f-86d6-357332a91e48.png) The bug can be reproduced using this project: https://github.com/dtila/platfornio_unittesting ------------------------------------------------------------------ ### Configuration **Operating system**: Windows 10 **PlatformIO Version** (`platformio --version`): PlatformIO Core, version 6.1.6 #### Steps to Reproduce 1. Checkout the project was given the link above 2. Hit a breakpoint in the unit test You should see debugger displayed value is not the one returned by the mock. However the mock works correctly, since running the tests, they pass successfully: `Building... Testing... test\test_native_sut\SUTTests.cpp:54: TestMock [PASSED]`

If I can help with something, let me know
